Worldview Academy Bridge Year

Worldview at the Abbey is a Christian gap year program associated with Worldview Academy summer camps. Bill Jack, Jeff Baldwin, August Huckabee, and Hannah Hall founded the Abbey in 2014, and the curriculum centers around a Socratic teaching of classical texts in general education classes such as literature, political science, history, and economics, as well as teaching rhetoric, and apologetics from a Christian worldview. Along with classroom teaching, students engage in community service and leadership initiatives throughout the year to solidify the teaching in the classroom.

The Perspective

Worldview Crux has the vision to empower students to live and to think in accord with a biblical worldview. The program is designed to equip high school seniors and graduates to lead in a Christ-like way and boldly engage non-Christian worldviews and the culture! This program trains students in truth and grace to become effective leaders through academic classwork, one-on-one discipleship, and hands-on leadership training.
