Still Have Questions?

Connect with others who are asking questions about life, faith, and what matters.

We understand the unique challenges around the desire for deep relationships and intentional conversations about life. At Summit Ministries, over 475,000 students and adults have discovered the value of truth and relationship. More than knowing what they believe, they connect their faith with a Christian worldview, live it out, and lead others to do the same.

Summit’s Student Conference is a 12-day experience where students discover how to approach questions about faith and doubts in an ever-changing culture. We help them to resolutely champion a Christian worldview. Summit Ministries hosts ten Student Conferences in three locations.

Hard conversations about faith are inevitable…

Preparation for these hard conversations is optional. As students enter life beyond high school, Summit prepares them to engage in hard conversations. Millennial Christians are leaving the church in droves as they enter the workforce and Summit’s faculty is equipped to train and challenge them!

As students find their own identity, the Summit Student Conference experience complements the foundation of faith that has been laid by parents and youth leaders. Summit equips students to form deep relationships where truth is spoken in love and Christian convictions.

At Summit your students will get…

  • Guidance to explore hard questions about Christianity
  • World-class leaders who teach over 30 topics
  • Encouragement to lead conversations about life

Topics Include:

  • Marriage & Family
  • Economics
  • Bioethics
  • Evil and Suffering
  • Leadership
  • Apologetics
  • Homosexuality
  • What is Truth?
  • God’s Existence
  • College Prep
  • Church
  • Doubting
  • Biblical Foundations
  • Worldview Survey
  • Pornography
  • …and more!

I sent my youngest son to Summit many years ago. Now he is married with three children of his own. He is a youth minister and serving in the military, currently deployed. He loved the experience and came home with loads of information on how to recognize the Christian worldview, defend and be strong in his faith of Jesus Christ!

To date, 7/12 of my children, nieces, and nephews attended Summit Ministries (and the youngest is still only 16 years old) for a 2-week comprehensive overview and equipping of a Christian worldview before all attending CHRISTIAN colleges. All four sets of parents would agree with their children that their time spent at Summit Ministries was well-spent and investment into lives committed to living for Jesus and His kingdom! From Wheaton College to Grove City College and many Christian colleges in between, Summit Ministries lays the necessary groundwork and foundation for a positive, productive and challenging college experience!

My summit staff experience was such a pleasure. I had the honor to walk alongside students in various places in their faith. I was also encouraged by other staff that I worked with. Being a student is life changing, being a staff member is an honor.

A Christian worldview helped me see God everywhere, and made my relationship with him so much more special.

Summit has changed my life. It has provided me with resources that have continually served to help me throughout my entire college career, has given me life-long friendships, and is my home away from home. I could go on and on about Summit, so suffice it to say that my time there as both a student and a staffer has given me some of the most treasured experiences in my life to date.

I love the small groups because you get to know the other girls in a way that allows for trust and vulnerability even in such a short amount of time. Because we build that trust over the two weeks we are willing to listen to what each other have to say. We get a better picture of why people have certain interpretations of the bible and be able to come to better conclusions on what the context of certain passages have to say.

I have traditionally defended my side on abortion by just using the Bible but the speakers showed me a new way of thinking using secular science. Using science and logic was a whole new way of thinking that I had never even viewed as a good way to conversate with other people effectively.

I really didn’t think it was possible to change, and I didn’t care. My dad sent me to Summit and everything changed.

Summit was a game-changing experience for me! While on a radio interview, I was asked, ‘If you had just one piece of advice for parents to help their kids hold onto their faith, what would that be?’ It’s easy, send your kids to Summit!
