Asmt #10

Today I am supposed to identify a growing trend and how can camp use it. I belief camp has identified my trend, but has not used it to its full potential. Everywhere today one of the biggest growing trends is independence. while on one hand this can be a bad trend it gave birth for companies, schools, and any organization to find and develop stronger leaders.Note that when I say Independence can be a bad thing I use it to describe who is training the children of today's society. If children are being taught the most be who they are around then in today's schools kids are teaching kids not math, science, and history, but what is right and what is wrong. Only if they have a strong home family will they discuss what they have learned from there friends with their parents and be corrected. This continues until they go to college where they are most likely learning almost everything from those around them and having no one to discuss otherwise to. To prove my point a studied was done with boy middle scholars. the study was over when is rape ok. The results where over 30% said its OK to rape after you have spent allot of money on the girl and 50% said it is ok if the relationship was longer than 2 months. the college results where even worse. but their biggest reason was if the girl, "needed it or deserved it." I hope anyone that is reading this understands that  NEVER is it ok to force a women to do anything. My main point is the trends of bad learning only gets worse as kids get older. I love the launch program and this is only one step I believe camp can take in helping fight the world view, or the world trend of independence with no consequence. The problem is we can only put so much in one week of learning for campers. So I propose the ability for doing separate maturity camps we already have separate chapels for the number of kids here at camp where we teach the same message of salvation, but I see it as a way to allow a greater ability to help the growing christian and the newly saved. During senior high week kids are given the chance to go to their own choice of meeting were they can grow, but I think we need just a little more by making that either sooner or allowing the same age to come to camp and give two chapels one for the gospel and one for the next step in gospel. and  lastly a new T3 that I call G3 that is the next step for learning what it means to serve and that is to know what it means to grow in love where its more than just serving, its leading as servants and knowing what it means to be adults. the main benefits are stronger Christan's and stronger leaders for the world or for camp.
