Looking for additional spiritual and leadership development?
Sky 4 programming and activities are designed for campers entering grades 8 and 9. For additional leadership and spiritual development, consider our Morph program as another option for your incoming 8th grader, or Quest for your 9th grader.
Activities
There's never a dull moment at Sky Ranch.
Bible Study
Sky Ranch’s biblically-based study curriculum answers one of the annually rotating worldview questions:
- Who is God? (The character and nature of God)
- What is our need? (The person and work of Jesus)
- Who are you? (The body of Christ)
- What is Truth? (The Word of God)
Each program will tackle these 4 questions from the Life Map meant to intentionally challenge and encourage our campers where they are at developmentally. By moving through them every four years, campers work through these questions in the different stages of childhood – developing and deepening in their understanding as they mature.
