Even with the busy schedule of a college student, with help from Christ’s X Factor – a Christian religious group on campus – students who are interested in maintaining their Christian connections may do so.
“Our mission statement is to inspire fellow La Verne students and the community to live purpose driven lives through the gospel of Jesus Christ,” Tiffany Spears, president of Christ’s X Factor said.
Last year Christ’s X Factor began to establish itself as a club, but this year the club is making changes to improve itself.
“This year we’re trying to reach out a little more than we did last year with flyers, on Facebook and we even have plans for a bowling night,” Samuel Rhone, vice president of Christ’s X Factor, said. “We are trying to reach out any way we can.”
The club’s attempt to reach out to the students at the university has worked for them. The club went from seven members last year to nearly 20 this year.
“Even though we have grown, it’s not really a size thing for us, it’s more of an impact thing,” Rhone said. “And the impact comes from our lessons truly being from the Bible and not formed by a person.”
“This year we’ve also moved from talking so much about passages to talking more on topics,” said club president Tiffany Spears. “It’s what students are interested in listening to because that’s what they are going through so it helps them.”
The club meetings are different from a traditional church session. The biggest difference is that members aren’t being preached to.
“It’s a very open, casual and welcoming environment,” Ashley Cole, treasurer of Christ’s X Factor said.
“We come in and listen to what is being said, and give our input on the topic,” Cole added.
“I originally came to Christ’s X Factor because I wanted to reconnect with my faith and be able to balance everything in my life in order to reconnect with God and figure out what I wanted in life,” Cole said.
“If you come you will hear something that will change your view on things, and it’s not made up its scripture based,” Rhone said.
Christ’s X Factor is open to all denominations.
Members consider the club to be an interactive learning experience about God.
“This is an environment that allows students to reconnect with God,” Cole said.
Between students studying and working they are often very busy, but with this club they are able to keep in touch with God, Cole said.
Christ’s X Factor meets from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Tuesdays in the University Chapel.

The long weekend in the US has gotten even longer for Southwest customers, after the airline canceled more than 1,000 flights on Sunday, nearly 27% of its daily operations, marking the second day of mass cancellations by the airline. largest low airline cost. world.
The company blamed the cancellation on air traffic control problems and limited staff in Florida, as well as bad weather, according to CNN.
For its part, the Federal Aviation Administration stated, in a note, that there have been no cancellations related to air traffic since Friday.
“Flight delays and cancellations occurred for a few hours on Friday afternoon, due to widespread bad weather, military exercises and limited personnel. in aarea of the Jacksonville Air Route Air Traffic Control Center, ”the FAA added.
However, other airlines don’t appear to have been hit hard by these problems, with American Airlines canceling 2% of its flights on Sunday and budget airline Spirit Airlines canceling 2%, according to FlightAware.
Strong travel demand comes against the backdrop of the weekend extension to Monday due to federal holidays.
Southwest also canceled 808 flights on Saturday, blocking thousands of passengers in all over the country.
Last week, the airline announced it would impose the vaccine on employees, fueling speculation that the weekend delay may have been due to the pilots’ strike.
For its part, the Southwest Airlines Pilots Association (SWAPA) said the cancellation was due to “bad planning”.
“SWAPA is aware of the operational difficulties facing Southwest Airlines today due to a number of problems, but we can confidently say that our pilots are not involved. in no formal or informal operational procedure, “said the association.
This is because the airline recorded the worst punctuality performance and the largest percentage of canceled flights of any of the country’s big four airlines during June and July, according to the Cirium flight tracking service.
Nor were the passengers the only disgruntled Southwest, where unions of pilots, flight attendants and mechanics have complained about the airline’s operations.

On the band's first effort for Man's Ruin Records, 2000's The Art of Self Defense, Pike's instantly recognizable snarling guitar tone is the most obvious remnant from his Sleep days. But on outstanding tracks like "Baghdad" and "Blood From Zion," his previous group's snail-paced grind is replaced by driving riffs and thunderous drums that sound positively upbeat by comparison. The album also sees Pike tackling lead vocals for the first time (bassist Al Cisneros handled vocal duties in Sleep), and though his voice is buried somewhat low in the overall mix (lack of confidence perhaps?), this only places more emphasis on the true focus of High on Fire -- his bludgeoning guitar riffs. The heaviest of these serves as the backbone for the album's best track "Last," which simply must be heard to be believed. A promising new start for a genuine talent.Once again, Young Dave and his jolly good chaps have decided to pick a fight on an issue which does not exactly align with the manifesto on which they fought last May’s General Election, and that is Trades Unions and the ability of their members to withdraw their labour. Business Secretary Sajid Javid has clearly decided to out-Tebbit Norman Tebbit, as he also seeks to turn the screw on the Labour Party’s finances.
You Union cheppies over thyah! Nigh don't you dare dine tools or you'll be in trouble!! Jolly good sheow!!!
As Patrick Wintour at the Guardian observed, there were “new plans to criminalise picketing, permit employers to hire strike-breaking agency staff and choke off the flow of union funds to the Labour party … The scale of the reforms goes far wider than the previously trailed plan for strikes to be made unlawful unless 50% of those being asked to strike vote in the ballot”. And there was more.
Javid “is also to require that at least 40% of those asked to vote support the strike in most key public services. In the case of 100 teachers asked to strike, the action would only be lawful if at least 50 teachers voted and 40 of them backed the strike. The double threshold would have to be met in any strike called in health, education, fire, transport, border security and energy sectors – including the Border Force and nuclear decommissioning”.
But where it really becomes interesting is here: Javid will “Propose that unlawful or intimidatory picketing should become a criminal as opposed to civil offence”, and “Give the government certification officer powers to fine trade unions as much as £20,000 for breaches of reporting rules”. That does not hark back to Tebbit, as much as all the way back to what Sailor Heath tried in the early 1970s.
And here is the lesson, although it is doubtful that Cameron, Javid and the rest will be minded to heed it. It was thought at the end of the 1960s that the use of strikes and other industrial action was getting out of hand in some industries, especially the public sector. Harold Wilson’s Labour Government had backed away from legislating; Heath, who was returned to power in 1970 with a majority of 31, did not.
An Industrial Relations Court was created. Compulsory “cooling-off periods” were imposed. This had one immediate but seemingly unexpected effect: the creation of Union “martyrs”, who defied the Court and thus ended up in jail. What the new laws did not do was to curb industrial action: Heath
