Grace & Discernment

Grace, Freedom & Discernment

A 4-Night Family Camp · July 12–16, 2027

How do we parent with grace and freedom rather than fear? And how do we engage with education and the news with discernment rather than anxiety? Teacher Kelsey Kramer McGinnis — writer, musicologist, educator, and contributor to Christianity Today — will lead teaching and discussion on these questions, drawing on Scripture and her work on faith, culture, and Christian formation.

Church History Week

Church History & the Questions of Our Time

With Teacher Dan van Voorhis · July 17–23, 2027

Dan van Voorhis brings a historian's eye and a pastor's heart to the questions families and young adults are actually asking. Drawing on his deep expertise in church history, Dan reads the present moment through the long story of the church — and shows that today's hardest questions are rarely as new as they feel. Dan is known for adapting his teaching in real time to what's alive in the room, making each week genuinely unique. Dan van Voorhis holds a Ph.D. in History from the University of St. Andrews and spent 11 years teaching history and political thought at Concordia University, Irvine. He is Scholar-in-Residence at 1517 and the host of the daily podcast The Christian History Almanac.

Intimacy & Order

Intimacy & Order

An Invitation to Religious Spirituality · July 24–30, 2027

Perhaps you've heard someone describe themselves as "spiritual but not religious." And if you've spent much time in the church, you've met folks who are "religious but not spiritual." The invitation of Scripture is for an intimate spirituality with God — but that relationship is not meant to be divorced from Christ's church. Join teacher Gabe Kasper as we explore what this looks like together.
