Encounter the Exhilarating Spirit at SLU 101

      Unlimited rides at Universal, Exclusive Behind-the-Scenes Experiences at Sea World, Apologetics, Dolphins and Jesus? 

      Although this sounds like a confusing situation, SLU 101 makes it work. Student Leadership University is where student followers of Christ have the opportunity to not only strengthen their relationship with Jesus, but to also meet more than 400 other individuals from different states who share the same faith as them, learn how to defend their faith properly, and gain a 20-year head start on what it means to think, dream, and lead.  

     This 4-day adventure included amazing speakers such as Dr. Jay Strack, Brent Crowe, Pat Williams, and the famously known Dr. Sean McDowell. These incredible speakers delivered messages that applied to Christians, agnostics, and even Atheist and contained one central theme, how to be a leader like Jesus.  

     When asked about their experience at SLU 101, student Freshman, Amelie Nobel responded with “I had a beneficial time at SLU. Not only did the conference help enhance leadership skills, but it was also fun to have time to spend growing closer to friends and going on rides at the theme parks. I recommend this conference to anyone who is able to go because it is certainly life changing in many different aspects.” Amelie was not the only student to feel this way, Junior, Genesis Rapalo, shared “It was an amazing experience, each session was filled with so much truth and great advice that I will definitely use.” 

     During this conference, students were exposed to theological books written by the speakers, such as “Is God Just a Human Invention?” and “Ten Steps to Your Best Life” which students were also able to get most of them signed. SLU 101 also provided students with a reading list of books to read before the other sessions. 

     If you missed out on this amazing trip, don’t worry because SLU provides multiple trips such as this one in different seasons, such as in the fall, and in the Spring. If you want to continue to grow as a leader and have already completed the first session of SLU, which is session 101, then SLU has got you covered. They provide next level sessions such as 201, 301, and 401. Just when you think that it couldn’t get any better, IT DOES! With these next level sessions, SLU travels around the world and goes to places such as Washington D.C, Europe, and most exciting ISREAL!!!

     So join on the next trip to Student Leadership University, and take advantage of the knowledge that these amazing speakers will be pouring into you because not only will it develop you to think more like a leader, but it will also lead you to a closer relationship with Jesus.
