Around Ball State campus the last week, there have been flyers that say, "I agree with Tyler." Tonight Tyler will reveal himself to talk about his faith.
Campus Crusade for Christ (CRU) is hosting the event "I agree with Tyler" in Pruis Hall at 8:00 p.m.
The idea behind the event is that people agree with each other on many things.
"Do you agree with drinking a cup of coffee every day? Do you agree with trying to be a straight A student? Do you agree with solving world hunger?" Fay Gammon, campus ministry intern for Cru, said. "What we're trying to show is that agreeing with things is a normal part of our culture. We do it everyday."
The event will start with several videos on that subject and Ball State University students will give short talks about what they agree or disagree with.
"As we agree with something it identifies with who we are," Josh Holowell, an intern at CRU, said.
After that, Tyler will take the stage to talk about why he agrees with Christianity.
"Tyler" is Tyler Yoder, a senior business major and leader within CRU.
"He believes the gospel and believes the truth we're trying to get across," Austin Bontrager, junior general studies major, said about why Yoder was chosen to headline the event.
After Yoder's talk there will be a question and answer session.
Gammon is hoping people who come to the event to learn more about Christianity and what it could mean to them.
This event is part of Cru's outreach week.
The organization has an event every fall but they are hoping this will be the largest yet.
Similar events to "I agree with Tyler" have been held on other campuses around the country.
Ball State's chapter of CRU is part of a worldwide organization that was founded in 1951.
The organization is inter-denominational.
Campus Crusade for Christ weekly meetings are Thursday at 9:15 p.m. in Pruis Hall.
