TIME UNTIL WINTER CAMP
WHAT TO EXPECT
What:
Join us for a weekend in the mountains, connecting with other students in the 17:6 Network. This camp promises to be an impactful experience to grow your faith and friendships.
Topic:
...AND JESUS GREW - "Walking in God's Path to Maturity"
Coming-of-age stories have always drawn us in because they speak to something that is deep at our core—the desire to grow, to understand who God made us to be, and to make an impact on the world. Unfortunately, our culture has stripped down these God-given desires to something superficial and vain …"the glow up". As Christ followers, we strive for more. Our aim is to walk God’s path to maturity.
At Winter Camp, we will learn about God’s path to maturity by looking at coming-of-age stories that are straight out of the Bible. Using these stories, we will uncover principles that we can apply to our lives today.
