• College Transition Group: A seminar and a website to help young adults make the successful academic and social transition to college. About 50 percent of students attending college never graduate from college with a degree. Most of the young adults who do graduate from college often go through a significant period of adjustment. The major goal of the College Transition Group is to holistically prepare students for the challenges of college utilizing an ethic based on Judeo-Christian principles. The modern university, despite its theological origins in the church, is descending into an incoherent collection of politicized academic departments--whom as a rule--no longer believe in biblical revelation, moral absolutes, and the supernaturalism as revealed in the Scriptures. . We at the College Transition Group strongly believe that the Christian worldview can be defended scientifically, historically, and culturally. Therefore, we are evangelical and present the gospel message in a winsome and non-compromising way. Both Christian and non-Christian young adults are welcome and encourage to attend the seminar.

• Commerce Church:   I’m Terry Hart, and I am a local businessman and pastor of Commerce Church of Greater Lansing. I have long felt that business is a powerful venue for societal change and could be used of God to further his kingdom. That’s why for the last two decades I have sought to put biblical principles to work at my company, T. L. Hart, Inc., and have recently started Commerce Church. My vision is to see greater Lansing transformed through business – godly business. With this in view, my purpose for Commerce Church is to minister to the spiritual and practical needs of area business owners, managers and employees. We aim to do this through inspirational Sunday services; a 30-week mini-seminar series entitled The Institute of Biblical Business & Entrepreneurship, individualized programs geared to help both employer and employee at points of need, plus other training programs that will aid those seeking to be better leaders, parents and, most importantly, Christians.

• THE HOWARD CENTER For Family, Religion & Society.  Liberty Revisited, by John A. Howard, Ph.D., Senior Fellow.  "... Americans haven’t a clue as to what liberty is, or how to sustain it.  The British statesman Edmund Burke was a wise and eminent political philosopher and an ardent and articulate champion of liberty.  He stated that extreme liberty, which would seem to be perfect liberty, is instead, its fatal flaw.  Perfect liberty doesn’t exist anywhere and shouldn’t exist anywhere because, he said, “liberty must be limited to be possessed.” It is startling for us that he should speak of a fault of liberty, for liberty in our minds is a pure unencumbered blessing with no room for anyone to say, “Yes, but.”  It jars us to be told that there must be limitations.  Actually, the limitations he had in mind were not primarily legal restrictions." Please visit their website to learn more about The Howard Center.

• Student Statesmanship Institute (SSI): is a dynamic Biblical worldview and leadership training program established by the Foundation for Traditional Values (FTV) to further the mission of affirming and restoring America's Judeo-Christian heritage. It includes three separate week-long summer camps, serving more than 300 students each year; a traveling, two-day, on-site program for Christian, public and home-school students; and an exciting, discipleship program for SSI alumni called the Ambassador League.  (www.ssi-online.org)

   

  SSI represents a whole new way of thinking. Young people come to understand that God has a destiny and purpose for their lives. They start to realize that faith is not a 'crutch' for weak people, but rather it has relevance to every area of life. They begin to see themselves as Christ's Ambassadors, who have been commissioned to influence the world for His Kingdom. They learn to give themselves as servant leaders in a bankrupt culture. They are equipped to counter the narrow-secular worldview that is so pervasive in our society.

   

  SSI is Michigan’s Premier Biblical Worldview & Leadership Training Program for high school students.
