By providing intentional mentorship cohorts, regional gatherings, graduate retreats, book studies, a monthly newsletter, and more, Graduate Support exists to help you anchor your hope in Jesus through knowing Him through His Word and understanding the cultural moment so you can faithfully live for and from the Christian worldview wherever God is calling you.
Advent is right around the corner, beginning November 28. Enjoy a curated list of resources from Summit staff and faculty to use to prepare your hearts for this season of anticipation of our coming Savior!
It’s our prayer at Summit Graduate Support that these will draw you into a slower, reflective pace this Christmas season, to truly experience the hope, peace, joy, and love that comes from Immanuel, God with Us.

David Stubblefield sits down with Jim Wallace at the Stand to Reason Reality Conference to talk about leadership, the Christian life, and our place in this cultural moment.
The Leadership Cohort is an opportunity to continue to learn how to live out the Christian worldview & steward the influence God has given you. Everybody has influence, but a Christian leader is willing to use theirs to put the glory of God on display through the love & service of God & others.

Spend a week at Anderson University uncovering the idols that keep you from faithfully flourishing—so you can live with clarity, courage, and conviction in every season.
In your 20s, it’s easy to chase what looks good instead of what lasts. Success. Security. Significance. Comfort. Control. These aren’t bad things—but when they become ultimate things, they quietly take the place of God.

Director of Graduate Support
My name is David Stubblefield, and I serve as Director of Summit Graduate Support. I was a student in 1997. Like many of you, my Summit experience changed my life forever.
Over the past 20+ years, I’ve worked with Summit to equip students as a summer staffer, a full-time staffer, and faculty. Now I am privileged to reconnect with and support Summit Graduates like you.
Wherever God has placed you and in whatever circumstance you find yourself, we want to provide you with encouragement, connection, and resources to help you stand firm in Christ and faithfully live out the Christian worldview. We want you to know that you are not alone.
I’d love to connect with you and hear your life story since Summit and any ideas you may have for how Summit can support you in embracing Biblical truth and championing the Christian Worldview.
