The purpose of the training is to encourage and equip students (grades 7-12 and college), parents, teachers, pastors, and any follower of Jesus with the ability to stand firm for Christ in a world of opposing ideas. This event is hosted by UBY and in partnership with Summit Ministries. Summit’s mission is to equip and support rising generations to embrace God’s truth and champion a biblical worldview.

Dr. Jeff Myers is the president of Summit Ministries. In the past 20 years, Dr. Myers has become one of America’s most respected authorities on youth leadership development. Focus on the Family founder, James Dobson, referred to him as “a very gifted and inspirational young leader.” Josh McDowell called him “a man who is 100% sold out to prepare the next generation to reflect the character of Christ in the culture.” Through his appearances on Fox News and other media programs, Dr. Myers has become a fresh voice offering humor and insight from a Christian worldview.
