It seems to work on one level, but I wonder if it draws the best and brightest into the fold.
Look at Ted Haggard. I wouldn't trust my kids with him

There were a few in this video I didn't care for, the bush worship and the glass breaking. I'm curious to see how they treat other people that disagree with them. I see nothing wrong with being a devout christian 90 percent of this video I agree with and I watch the whole thing. As long as they stay within the teachings of Jesus main commandment "love thy neighbor as you love thy shelf" I have no problem with there teachings.

If people watch the video, they will be able to make an informed decision to send their kids to this camp, or be involved with supporting this camp.

It's ok, as long as you are informed about what to expect. Good things come out of some of these camps, even though it may look peculiar to those who don't understand.
I have seen some very strange things happen at non-christian camps. (Even the Boy Scouts).

I think so, Children are not capable of making a full educated decision if people are brainwash them like that. Kids should all be raised to learn all different religions and faiths and then they should be able to make a "FREE WILL" Decision on thier own. Not have it forced upon them with Fear and scare tactics! That stuff makes me sick! And the people who do that should be ashamed of themselves.

I hated the predjudice:
"There are two types of people in the world..."
You aren't better because you know Jesus, you just know God differently, and perhaps understanding comes more easily...
