SHINE CAMP History (SHINE Camp will return in 2026)

It all began in my living room with seven girls … my ninth-grade daughter asked if she and her friends could do Bible study together. So, every Friday night for the entire summer, she and her best friends gathered for fun, food, prayer, and Bible study. Unable to find a study that addressed their needs for their age, I wrote one. That was fourteen years ago.

Today this study is used with church groups and in home studies across America. I am so grateful for my daughter’s surprising, and rather fearful, proposal. But after all these years, I see clearly this was God’s plan. From a small living room with seven teenage girls, to a conference center.

May we remember that God is always up to something good in our lives and often way bigger than we could have imagined. Shine On! Radiating the love of God—Teen Bible study is available on Amazon. Visit my book page for a direct link.

  • I was very reluctant to come to Shine Camp. I was pressured into coming because of my mom and church. I love God and spending time studying his word with friends, but I just thought that Shine Camp would be boring, chaotic, and for little girls only. When I came, everyone was very positive and welcoming. Everyone here was like rays of sunshine, especially Mrs. Debbie. The videos, topics, and discussions were all awesome and relatable. My favorite part of Shine Camp was the group discussions. To be able to talk to Christian girls my age who can relate to me and share experiences that can help me was awesome. Everyone and everything at Shine Camp is amazing and worth it. I’m so glad I came. I will carry every memory and lesson I learned for the rest of my life.High School Senior
  • Before I came here, my youth group wasn’t taking me in the right direction in my walk with Jesus, but this week I feel like I got more here than I ever will with my youth group! AND I CAN’T WAIT TO COME BACK NEXT YEAR!!High School Freshman
  • Shine Camp has been an awesome experience! As one of the oldest girls, I have really loved watching the younger girls grow to love Jesus like I do, all while growing myself.High School Senior
