Our mission at Lifeway Students is to design trustworthy experiences that fuel ministry. We serve student ministries through Bible studies, events, camps, and training.
The Lifeway Students blog and podcast are additional ways we want to come alongside you in the day-to-day realities of ministry. We hope they will be a hub of encouragement, experience, and practical advice for you as you strive to be obedient to God’s call to make disciples of students and their families. Join Chuck Peters and some of the best student ministry contributors around as they help you walk and wrestle through the joys, challenges, victories, and struggles of student ministry. We are with you and we are for you in this calling!
