I Believe In God But I Dont Go To Church. Is That Bad For Pepperdine?


I know that Pepperdine is an extremely religious school. I really want to go there because of their good business program, nice campus, and their “dry campus” I actually dont do drugs or drink alcohol and so I like that Pepperdine being a Christian school really cracks down on the no drinking and drugs thing. The only thing Im worried about is that i dontgo to church regularly and havent. I DO believe in God definitely, but im not one of those kids who grew up going to church every week etc. Since Im not really affiliated with a specific church, would that decrease my chances of getting in? Would it make me stick out or something? I have no problem taking any religious classes or anythig like that at pepperdine btw. Its just the factor that i dont go to church, but still believe in God.

Question Pertaining To Alcohol And Drug Use…?


My two closest friends, the ones I’ve stuck with for at least a decade, drink alcohol and smoke marijuana habitually. I used to do the same but have significantly eased up on alcohol consumption and completely nixed marijuana from my system. I plan on dropping everything, meaning no alcohol and no tobacco whatsoever. I am concerned that, in a way, our vices are what keeps our friendship intact.
We’ll go to museums, sporting events, concerts, various activities and the day inevitably ends with the question “So, what are we going to do tonight?” which usually means a 1.75 liter bottle of whiskey or vodka and an eighth of marijuana. I am unsure how to break it to them, if I even should. I am certain that if they’re truly my friends they will understand but these were the bonds that formed our friendship in the very beginning, even dwindling our little crew from over ten loosely affiliated drunks and druggies to the three we are now.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
