In this episode, Michael talks with Greg Hunter, President and CEO of the Christian Camp and Conference Association (CCCA), about the role of Christian camps in today’s digital age and how camp leaders respond to safety concerns after tragedies like the Camp Mystic flooding. Discover how camps foster spiritual growth, teach kids to disconnect from technology, and provide safe, life-changing experiences for children.

Key Takeaways:

• Christian camps prioritize safety protocols, with some using CB radios, NOAA weather monitoring, and emergency training for staff.

• Camps provide a tech-free environment that helps kids disconnect from screens, reduce anxiety, and build meaningful relationships.

• Between 33–40% of non-church kids at certain camps make their first-time commitment to Christ.

• Parents can reach out to local camps to understand safety measures and how children will thrive in the camp environment.

• Faith and adventure go hand-in-hand: kids gain confidence, new skills, and spiritual insight through camp activities like ropes courses, horseback riding, and guided reflections.
