Super Summer Experiences Record Growth

Another record Super Summer is in the books!

Held at Cedarville University during the last week of June, Super Summer had record involvement with 475 students and staff in attendance.
 
To accommodate the large number, two worship services were held each night – one for older students and one for younger students. This also allowed this year’s speaker, Dean Inserra, lead pastor, City Church, Tallahassee, Florida, to tailor his messages to each age group. TakeHeart led worship for both services nightly.

Throughout the week, Inserra spoke on “Permanent Things” that are “Unending.” His messages encouraged students to build their houses on the rock of Christ’s teaching, to stay anchored to God and his Word, and to live from a place of intimacy with Jesus.  He also led our students in an extended time of prayer each evening.

In addition to evening worship, Super Summer uses biblical truth to develop Christian leaders for kingdom impact.
 
Students who have just finished seventh grade through their freshman year in college receive training that is specific to their grade level. Some of the top pastors and leaders in the SCBO come together to invest in our student leaders.

At each grade level, students worship together, hear teaching from gifted SCBO pastors, and then discuss the application of the lessons in small groups.

The students choose a total of six elective classes to attend during the week, including topics like Responding to the Call to Ministry, Character Matters, Church Planting, Mental Health and Leadership, and Understanding How You Are Wired to Worship, as well as many others.

The intense week of study and spiritual challenge led to students making a variety of decisions in their walk with the Lord: Twenty-one students made professions of faith; thirty-five students were called to full-time ministry; and seventy-two students were called to missions.
Please pray that each of our Super Summer students would continue to pursue Jesus and the specific kingdom contribution that God has for them.
