what would you tell you?

A Different Type of Leader

If you could go back and tell yourself one thing in middle or high school, what would you say? As a SWAT Leader, you get the chance to share your testimony with students and encourage them to pursue Jesus with everything.

Middle & high school students have a lot opportunities in front of them. Each of these can be a distraction if they aren’t careful. As a college student, you have a fresh memory of what it was like to pursue Jesus in middle & high school. We give you a chance to encourage and challenge youth students to focus in on who Jesus is and what He has for them during these years.

I became a Christian through the prayers and love of the SWAT community in Athens. Now, I’m married to the girl who connected me to SWAT in the first place!

SWAT was super influential in emphasizing the importance of discipleship, both my need for it and cultivating a passion for discipleship in the ministry God had in store for me.
