Criminal Justice

Explore the role of criminal justice in a God-ordained government.

Registration is open to campers from 14 to 18 years old who have just completed or are entering into grades 9–12.

You’ll learn how the three branches of the criminal justice system work together from a biblical and practical standpoint. Experience for yourself the physical rigors of becoming a police officer. Gain an understanding of the hiring process. And discover the methods investigators use to detect and apprehend criminals.

Through hands-on activities, you’ll learn how to process a crime scene, present a case before a judge and jury, and conduct work as a patrol officer. Field trips may include a visit to a working jail to observe the corrections portion of criminal justice.

What to Expect

In this program, you’ll work with state-of-the-art technology and learn from experienced law enforcement officers who will test you academically and physically. Come prepared to work hard and be challenged!

Experience how law enforcement officers are tested and prepared for the field.

Appreciate how godly criminal justice majors apply biblical principles to accomplish their God-ordained role in government.

Expand your horizons as you explore the components of the criminal justice program and the work of police officers, deputy sheriffs, probation/parole officers, judges, and prosecutors.

Compete against other teams of campers in your grade level. First-place teams will be honored at the closing awards ceremony.

However you spend your free time, you’ll be spending it with your newfound friends. You can explore the Sports Center—climb the rock wall, bowl with friends, cool off in the ice-skating rink, or make a splash at the water park. You can grab a smoothie at the Common Grounds Café and just hang out. Each day, daily challenges will be a time to come together and grow spiritually.

Show Your Work
