Sophomore Keegan Conway from Amarillo, Texas later shares that he was shocked by how CBC would affect his life, walk with Christ and his relationships. He is currently undecided about his major, but is interested in mechanical engineering and says he can picture pursuing engineering as a career.
Growing up in Amarillo, Conway didn’t originally plan on going to CBC. Finally deciding to go to college on a basketball scholarship, Keegan made the decision to take the leap.
“God sent me to CBC beyond basketball, beyond track. It has helped me. If I didn’t go here, I probably would not have been saved,” said Conway.
Although Conway said he thought he was saved for years, it wasn’t until coming to college that he realized that something needed to change.
“I would go to chapel just because I had to.… [I was] rededicated and saved last year,” said Conway.
Since his rededication, Conway said that Christ is the first priority of his life.
“I’m passionate about Christ and living for Christ. [I want to be someone] you can talk to and be a good example, a hard-working example,” said Conway. “I want to be a person that can walk into a room and brighten up someone’s day.”
Growing up, Conway said he went to church with his grandparents occasionally, but there was a lack of regularity due to work schedules. Conway now hopes to introduce Christ to his family.
“One of my biggest goals is to get my family saved; get them on board. My grandparents are, but I have a little brother and a little sister. Then, of course, my mom and my stepdad. Family is very important to me,” said Conway.
Along with his passion for his family, Conway is also passionate about his school.
“CBC is not a big campus, but I think that if you are looking to find more Christ-like people or if you are looking to have better relationships I would go here for sure,” said Conway. “When you go to big universities you are just another one of the 15,000 there.”
