Biblical Worldview
If you are ready for something that will really change you, come join us.
How should a Christian engage a world in chaos? Biblical Worldview camp equips students with the essential skills of using a biblical framework 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, but students will also 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.
Activities
- Biblically engage culture.
- Interview Christian professionals.
- Visit and analyze secular institutions.
- Evaluate media with professionals.
