Biblical Worldview
Join us for an intense, action-packed week of being saturated in the Scripture and seeing the gospel go forth!
How should a Christian engage a world in chaos? Biblical Worldview camp equips students with the essential skills of utilizing a biblical framework in order to evaluate our world. Not only will students consider biblical responses to hot topics like gender and identity, critical race theory, social media, and others, students will interact with professional scientists, musicians, and theater directors, exploring the way a biblical framework affects their work. Students will also visit local political organizations, assessing them with a biblical framework. Finally, they will discover how a biblical worldview gives them tools to interact appropriately with digital media.

- Equip students to engage culture biblically through real-world experiences
