Faith for Life
Is there a Christian way to engage with technology? While placing ever-increasing demands on our time, many of our time-saving devices are putting up walls between us even as they promise to connect us further.
In this month’s Summit Forum at 11 a.m. (MDT), Tuesday, October 25, Summit Alumni Director Paige Gutacker will be sharing about Christian formation and the worldview-tug of Internet-enabled technologies.
So many Christians are desperate for answers to life’s biggest questions. They’re facing withering assaults on their faith unlike anything I’ve seen in my lifetime. Far too many grow weary and faint just at the time when society most needs leaders advancing a biblical worldview.
Operation Cross the Line is our chance to give a lasting gift to the rising generation by immediately making plans to train 3,000 students a year — a 60% increase — to step across the line to be courageous, truth-loving leaders.
We have a big problem. Donations are at their lowest in five years.
The culture needs Summit more than ever. As a partner, you are helping change America one young leader at a time. Your support enables me to say “YES” to highly-qualified students regardless of their ability to pay. The gap is about $200 per student.
Will you help me end the year strong? A gift of any amount helps keep Summit strong so we can equip this generation to turn the tide.
For many Christians, the thought of conversing with our Mormon coworkers, neighbors, and friends about our different faiths is incredibly intimidating. What do Mormons believe, and how is it different from what Christians believe?
Thankfully, Stand to Reason’s Brett Kunkle isn’t intimidated. And he’s got an awesome track record of helping others learn how to similarly engage Mormons fearlessly and winsomely.
This month, Summit brings you a chance to learn from Brett’s vast experience at the crossroads of apologetics and evangelism. Tune in free at 3:30 p.m. (Mountain), Wednesday, August 24 for the Summit Forum, Mormonism: Will it Survive?
The webinar has passed — watch the replay of Mormonism: Will it Survive? here.
Have a question for Brett? Tweet us at @summitmn (use #SummitForum) or email alumni@summit.org, and we’ll ask him on air!

Two years from now, with your help, Summit will be transformed from a life-changing summer program into a year-round nerve center through which not only students but also pastors, teachers, and other influencers will be equipped to stand for truth in culture.

To meet the growing need for worldview training throughout the church, Summit is seeking to “lengthen the cords and strengthen the stakes” of its ministry. This includes renovating Summit’s antique hotel to winterize it for year-round use and triple its capacity. To finish the renovation project and become a year-round nerve center to teach and mentor both young and old, Summit needs $2.2 million to complete the final phase of construction.
After five years on active duty in the Marine Corps, Summit alumnus Tim Khan attended a Summit conference and Summit Semester and realized no other boot camp could prepare him better than Summit boot camp–the boot camp for the heart and the mind. Summit has supplanted a culture of death with a culture of life and given him renewed hope in the goodness of God, which is present even in a fallen world.

One of the most pressing questions people ask about our two-week programs at Summit is how we handle issues like same-sex marriage, sexual brokenness, and masculinity/femininity. It’s one of my favorite questions to answer because our team does an outstanding job working with students on these tough subjects, both intellectually and emotionally, and we’re seeing dramatic growth in students’ lives.
