Preparing For University
Statistically, 75% of young people with a Christian background who enrol at university stop going to church. For any army to lose 3/4 of its forces is catastrophic.
From 7 - 14 January 2007 the Summit Youth Leadership and Worldview Training Course will be practically preparing students to deal with the issues, temptations and pressures of university. The Summit equips students with the facts and the skills they need to deal with humanism and evolutionism. The Summit applies the Lordship of Christ to all areas of life.
“And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may approve what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.” Romans 12:2
The Summit is a crash-course to enable students to understand and articulate the Christian worldview, to enable them to answer the toughest questions and to equip them with the skills and the confidence they need to respond to every challenge to their Christian faith.
Christianity is not for the weak minded. It is not enough to simply believe. You have to know what you believe and why you believe. And you need to be able to defend it. The Summit will enable you to understand and respond in a Biblical way to everything from Relativism to Dualism, from Hollywood to Humanism, from Marxism to Islam. The Summit can change your life.
Participants of previous Summits have written these responses:
“An amazing experience which strengthened my faith…”; “It has renewed my enthusiasm for Jesus…”; “Very different to any other kind of Christian camp”; “A great time of spiritual revival”; “The Summit gave me solid foundations for defending and living my faith”; “The best experience in my life so far…”; “Well organised, stimulating, fun, wonderful!”
At the Summit you will encounter real Christians seeking to live with integrity and deal honestly and intelligently with life's challenges. At the Summit you will have the opportunity for lots of mind bending, life altering, learning and soul searching. There will also be lots of fun, fellowship, hiking, volleyball and water sports and there will be the opportunity to put feet to your faith with outreaches within the area.
The Summit not only leads to new lifelong friendships, but greatly strengthens the family. Many parents have commented positively on the changes they have seen in their children. As one father said: “I sent you a boy, and you sent me back a young man!”
The Summit will be held out on a farm just outside Cape Town. Most lectures are accompanied by PowerPoint and manuals and textbooks are provided as part of the course.
The Summit is great value for time and money. Some have commented that it was the best investment they have ever made. Those attending the Summit will find that it is packed full with cutting edge research, films, presentations and valuable information. It actually makes it enjoyable for students to serve the Lord and to stand up and speak up for the Christian worldview.

“See to it that no-one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the basic principles of this world rather than on Christ.” Colossians 2:8
