Summit Ministries Students to Study Christian Worldview at Liberty University
Liberty University School of Law Announces the Future Generation Summit Ministries Scholarship

LYNCHBURG, VA, June 18 /Standard Newswire/ -- On June 21, Liberty University and Liberty University School of Law will welcome Summit Ministries and its two-week worldview conference to campus. During the conference, high school students will be challenged to examine their worldviews, evaluate those views as they pertain to the current post-Christian culture, and take action based upon those views. The conference will feature renowned speakers such as Mathew D. Staver, Dean and Professor of Law at Liberty University School of Law, Dr. Ergun Caner, President of Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary and Graduate School, and Dr. Gary Habermas, an expert on Christian apologetics.

Summit Ministries, based near Colorado Springs, Colorado, endeavors to educate Christian youth about today's post-Christian culture and to equip them with the practical knowledge and tools necessary to stand firm in their faith. During its summer program, Summit offers comprehensive lectures by leading experts on a variety of topics, including apologetics, history, theology and popular culture. Students learn how to articulate a reasoned and biblically sound Christian response on issues such as abortion, postmodernism, politics, Christianity in culture, the inerrancy of Scripture, and creationism versus the theory of evolution. Summit has dual goals of instilling in students a steadfast Christian worldview and a meaningful understanding of why they believe what they believe.

In addition to hosting the 2009 Summit Ministries conference on the campus of Liberty University, the Liberty University School of Law is pleased to announce the creation of "The Future Generation Summit Ministries Scholarship." The scholarship will be awarded to outstanding graduates of Summit's annual conference who plan to attend the School of Law. Select students who participate in the conference, meet the full admissions standards for the law school, including a competitive Law School Admission Test score and the requisite grade point average, and sufficiently communicate their calling to the study of law will be eligible for the scholarship.

Commenting on the conference, Staver, who is also the Founder of Liberty Counsel, said, "With proponents of moral relativism and postmodernism taking our educational system hostage, it is encouraging to know that organizations like Summit Ministries are making a positive difference by equipping a new generation to think biblically. As the largest and fastest-growing evangelical university in the world with a premier law school, Liberty University is pleased to partner with Summit Ministries to provide a new scholarship program in an effort to prepare this generation of young people to apply a Christian worldview to achieve desperately needed cultural reform."
