Camp Pastor:Runks

Runks is a crazy guy who has lived a crazy life and is a master at using hilarious stories from his life to illustrate biblical truth with clarity, authority, and depth. More than just a funny guy, he is a survivor of childhood sexual abuse and addictions and has an awesome testimony of the power of God in desperate situations.

 

Worship Band:Chris Clayton

Chris serves as a worship leader traveling the United States leading worship in various youth, college and young adult capacities. Since 2000, Chris has traveled on a full time basis with a heartbeat to lead authentic worship. "For me, it isn't about going out and pounding a Bible over a person's head, but instead striving to reflect God in everything I do. Worship is more about a lifestyle than any song written or any service on a Sunday morning."

 The HBU REC Team (RECruiting & RECreation) is a scholarship ministry team that spends 8-10 weeks each summer ministering to camps full of youth and children. The REC Team participates in recruiting efforts, skits, leading recreation, testimonies, worship, and much more.

 

 DBU Rec teams are trained, energetic, and travel with all equipment needed for rec. During Summer 2010, the Rec Teams served with 23 junior and senior high camps in Texas, Alabama and Florida.
