This Sunday, Jake, Ryan, and Maggie are talking about the Gospel—and Ryan discovers that loving your neighbor may be considerably harder when your neighbor is also your roommate.
Inspired by Matthew 22:34–40, this week’s ROOK finds a little humor in one of Christianity’s most familiar teachings: love God, love your neighbor—and then figure out what that means when someone is eating your food.
ROOK is a daily original college newspaper comic about friendship, faith, growing up, and the odd little moments that make college life meaningful. Set in and around Benedictine College and Atchison, it follows Jake, Ryan, Maggie, and their friends through the ordinary adventures of college.
A new ROOK strip appears every day at noon CST.

Different adventures. Same journey.
