Have you noticed how young Bernie Sanders’s supporters are? These are our future leaders and they don’t know enough about history or economics to know that socialism is a failure.
Can I make a strong suggestion? Send every 16-to-21-year-old you know and love to Summit Ministries this summer. Summit’s focus is preparing godly leaders who stay strong in their faith and take a stand for what is right and true. For more than 50 years families have trusted Summit. Their graduates are leaders in every facet of society.
The Summit course is 12 days long and features personal contact with top thought leaders in economics, biblical worldview, philosophy, and social issues. Courses are available all summer long in Colorado, Tennessee, and California.
Now is the time to invest in preparing mature, thoughtful, focused, alert young leaders. Summit is key. That’s why I’m honored to be on their board of reference for this outstanding organization and encourage you to reserve a spot for this summer.

As a Hollywood screenwriter and best-selling novelist, I explore the power of storytelling in movies and in the Bible. I reveal the elements of worldview, and how storytelling incarnates meaning and worldview. I explain the nature of subversion, and how narratives compete and win in the culture wars of both movies and the Bible. I examine the Bible as a model for analyzing how sex, violence and profanity may be used in movies and storytelling. I look at four differences between exposing sin and exploiting sin. I describe the 9 basic elements of story structure used in movies and the Bible to communicate redemption. I describe the genre of horror and explain the 4 ways that horror is used redemptively in the Bible and in movies.
