CAPE TOWN, South Africa, Jan. 31, 2011 /Standard Newswire/ -- The Biblical Worldview Summit near Cape Town was held in a forest in the mountains, near a lake. The Biblical Worldview Summit was an intense Leadership Training programme which stretched minds and muscles, presenting daily challenges for problem solving, obstacle crossing and other team building exercises.
Every day began with physical training, running and obstacle courses. The practicals included night hikes, raft building, canoeing, survival skills, first aid, water sports and a series of outreaches in the nearby town. The programme included: 7 Devotions/Sermons, 34 lectures, 4 workshops, 18 hours of practicals, 2 night hikes, 6 films, a Variety Concert and outreaches.
Participants wrote the following responses: "Scary! Well organised, power-packed, worth the money and time!"; "It has been a great adventure and I have learnt a lot"; "Solid based on God's Word, like nothing I have ever seen before, the lectures were brilliant!"; "It was really fun!"; "Very different from anything I have been used to"; "Tough physically, amazing teaching, a great learning experience"; "Very effective for ministering to spirit, mind and body"; "Very well organised. Excellent!"; "Well disciplined and organised camp with the very best speakers"; "Very well organised, excellent and friendly leaders, fun team building activities"; "I did things I never thought I could do!"; "A must for any Christians wanting to grow in Christ"; "I've grown stronger in my Faith and learnt more than I could have ever imagined!"; "I've learnt more this week than I have learnt at school!"; "I have learned not to believe anything without first evaluating the proof"; "I wish it was longer!"; "Make the camp longer!"; "It was great!"; "You should make the camp longer"; "I enjoyed the fellowship with other Christians and connected with God"; "I have been physically strengthened, mentally, emotionally empowered"; "I'm now stronger and bolder for Christ"; "I came last year and loved it, so I came back"; "It went beyond my expectations"; "Everything was awesome"; "All presentations were relevant and helpful".
