The short video below includes very brief clips from Mr. Weston’s camper orientation. We want to set the right tone at the beginning! And at orientation, we work hard to do just that. Below that you’ll see some pics from Fellowship Time, one of the campers’ favorite times of day—a great time to relax, talk about how the day so far, and make some new friends.

Here are some pics from Arrival Day of this year’s LYP Teen Camp 2022. Most of what you see below is before the campers arrive—staff preps their areas of responsibility and works with their teams. Mr. Weston and his team orient the staff and discuss the spiritual principles, the camp’s rules, and the vision behind the program. Later in the day, each team of instructors gets to practice their class with a group of staff members acting as “campers.” It’s a great opportunity to try out their lesson plans in a real instructional environment, get feedback from fellow staff members, and work out any wrinkles before classes begin the next day. Everything is geared toward making sure the camp is up and running so that, when campers arrive, they are coming to a camp that is ready for them! And arrive they do, as you can see in the final pictures. More pics should be on their way soon, so be sure to check back!
We hope these very early pics from LYP Teen Camp 2022 serve as a tease for the pics yet to come! Check them out and watch the brief video below. We look forward to posting more as camp continues (probably even later today), so come back soon!

Today’s podcast was recorded last night, inspired by a Twitter exchange one of us had with someone suggesting that Numbers 5 is a biblical endorsement of abortion. We thought it would be a worthwhile topic because (1) you guys are going to face scripture-twisting arguments like this, yourself, and (2) the Bible does have some passages that can strike us as “weird” at first reading, and this might be one for you. But it all makes sense if you approach the Bible with your biblical-thinking head on straight. We hope this helps!
