I am proud that John and Trudy have started the IMPACT 360 program because the students who attend are going to leave with a better understanding of God's plan for their lives. They will be prepared to take a stand for Christ not only during their university years, but also as they pursue careers in the marketplace.

Our involvement is a natural overflow of our prioritization of Christian worldview that combines the Christian intellectual tradition and the idea of service. Students who participate in Impact 360 will be well-equipped to move into their university studies with confidence.

 I can't think of anything better between High School and the college years than to set aside time to discover God, explore the world and fine-tune your vision for the rest of your life. That's what IMPACT 360 is all about, combining great teaching with practical experience preparing your role in God's amazing Story.

As a partner with LifeShape, I'm excited about the experiences students will have at IMPACT 360, because it will make a difference not only in their lives, and in the lives of their friends and peers, but also in the future of their generation. God is is opening the door for students who want to spend nine months of their lives on an adventure that will make the rest of their lives a more significant and successful journey.

It is no longer someone else's job to worry about the next generation and what kind of leaders they will be.
It is our responsibility as Christian leaders to work to produce young people who are grounded in Truth and who are willing to influence the world by living Christ-focused lives. IMPACT 360 offers a program designed to meet this challenge, and believe me, the next generation of leaders will be better because of it.
Josh McDowell
 I am impressed with the caliber of godly leadership which is in place for Impact 360. I am also excited about the difference this gap-year opportunity could make in shaping the futures of participating students, helping them to delve deeply into the foundation of Christianity, bolstering their faith and equipping them for future challenges. I commend Impact 360 for teaming with Union University so that students also earn 15 transferable credit hours-a great start on a college degree.

Outstanding mind shaping and character building residential programs for high school graduates are scarce. Impact 360 is a marvelous, well designed program that should quickly attract the brightest and best becoming one of the foremost academies of its type in America.
Dr. Luder Whitlock, Jr.
President, Trinity Forum
Western culture is dying. Some adults are content to just watch the funeral procession. But select teenagers want the power and wisdom of God so they can rise up to confront the culture and expand the kingdom. Those young warriors can do no better during a gap year between high school and college than experience IMPACT 360. They will complete the year with a lifetime biblical worldview, an understanding of ways to use their vocation for the kingdom, and an unforgettable international missions experience. I give this effort my strongest endorsement.

Imagine a world where the emerging generation is passionately living the truth of the Gospel without compromise. What would it take for that to happen? Preparation, intention, and commitment. IMPACT 360 is a place of preparation where students spend nine months in an intentional living/learning environment, engaged in a community where the students commit to growing closer to God while discovering His vision for their lives. IMPACT 360 is making sure that our world will never be the same.
