"He is present in the in-between." Camille Glath, 2nd from right. We are halfway through our camp season already. We've just completed two amazing weeks and are gearing up for Junior High week and then High School week. If there are any high school students considering camp but are reluctant, perhaps even anxious, we hope you'll find comfort in Camille Glath's story. As we continue our stories about camp, Camille shares her experience of trusting God in the midst of uncertain

"When you are surrounded by people who love the Lord and are actively pursuing that relationship with Him, not only do you get to see the goodness of God in your life, but also in the lives of the people around you." ~Gentry Stutts King's Camp 2026 is just a few days away as we continue with our personal testimonies about camp. This time Gentry Stutts is giving us a window into her experience. Gentry is a long time camper, and this year her King's Camp story begins a new chap

We’re back for another camp story. This time Dr. Austin Clark shares his camp experience. Austin has consistently shared with us how formative going to camp and working at camp has been for him. In a recent conversation with Nolan and me, he spoke again about the values of camp. You can read the entirety of his thoughts below, but this statement stands out: In an age when it’s easier than ever to be isolated, anonymous, and online, we need spaces where we can relearn the diff

We continue to share stories of camp this week. Read Addison Williams story. She shares her experience as a camper—finding friendship, community, and her faith in God...to becoming a counselor —"to give back to the place that has given so much..." It's a joy to see how Addison has grown from a shy camper into a courageous young woman sharing the love of God on her college campus and beyond. Addison is currently studying abroad, but will be with us again this summer in her thi

Emma Caraway on the right. With summer camp just around the corner, we continue to share King's Camp testimonies as a celebration of 40 years of camp community. This week we have the privilege of hearing from one of our high school campers, Emma Caraway from Shreveport. Emma's mom, Leslie Green Caraway, was a camper and counselor back in the day and her grandmother, Sarah Green, was a college friend of one of our beloved founders, Molly Clark Hartrick. You will enjoy her eloq

Hi King’s Camp Family! I’m not sure if you know this, but June 2026 marks the 40 th year of King’s Camp! We are so excited that we’re going to be featuring stories from the past, present, and everywhere in between of what King’s Camp has meant to people through these years. Sharing these testimonies is an act of gratitude, worship, and remembrance of what God has done, as well as an act of faith of what God will continue to do in the future. We hope you enjoy! If you have a

This week we celebrate Thanksgiving. I love a holiday that invites us to reflect and give thanks. I believe it blesses the heart of God when we have a posture of gratitude and thanksgiving, hearts that cry out in worship in response to His goodness. I’m reminded of so many passages in Scripture that admonish us to be thankful, but two New Testament Scriptures immediately come to mind: Colossians 3:15, “And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were

An Invitation! Come and see. This was our theme for camp this summer, and this past weekend we were able to gather and share with friends and donors what God has faithfully accomplished in our camp community —our Cross at the Oaks Amphitheater! It was appropriate that our summer focus was “Come and See.” During camp, we filled our imaginations with the scene of Jesus calling his followers in John 1:35-51. In these verses, when John the Baptist sees Jesus, he exclaims, “Look,

Hello Camp Family! We have some exciting things happening at King’s Camp. One of the rewarding gifts of King’s Camp is the ability to provide space and time for people to get away and experience the presence of God. This is a very important part of this ministry. August, September, and October our grounds are filled with young people and adults seeking the Lord in the way of retreats. We are grateful that God uses these grounds for His glory and purpose in this way. An exciti
