About Student Life Conference

Student Life Conference is a weekend focused in God's Word. Our goal is for the weekend to be gospel-centered and powerfully proclaim the life that is found only in Jesus Christ through service & humility. Life-change does not come through some man-made experience, but rather through the Spirit working in us and through our interaction in Scripture.That will be the fuel at the heart of everything we do. Whether through corporate worship, prayer, or other thought-provoking elements, our goal is the same: helping teenagers know Christ through His Word.

BE LAST - love this thought, we simply could not get away from the second part of Mark 9:35, "If anyone would be first, he must be last of all and servant of all." The struggle for each of us to live a life about and for Jesus the Christ in a world that seems to be all about us is in fact that, a struggle. But the struggle is a part of the process toward living a life holy and expectable before God. Ultimately, the weekend is about your students realizing the eternal joy in what it means to BE LAST in a world that is all about "ME".

A bit of background that many of you know, we offered the spring conferences as a resource to churches for 14 years (1996-2009) and have been on a bit of a break as we focused on completing Student Life Bible Study and our summer experiences. Over those 14 years we had unbelievable moments sitting under the leadership of teachers such as Dave Busby, Louie Giglio, David Nasser, David Platt, Dave Edwards, Erwin McManus, Voddie Baucham, JR Vassar, Staurt Hall and Francis Chan...and lead in worship by Chris Tomlin, Kristian Stanfill, Charlie Hall, Casting Crowns, Michael John Clement, Spur58 and Jami Smith.

Again for 2013, we have invited some of our friends that we think are some of the best Biblical communicators and worship leaders around. We are confident that each of them will lead students well in each of the cities and we are pleased to offer each of them at every weekend event.
