It started at Harvard and Yale. It happened at Asbury and Wheaton. Prayer on college campuses has historically been at the forefront of God’s strategy to birth revival in a nation.
Join us in person this summer for a 21-day leadership experience designed to equip college students and campus leaders to contend for revival on their campuses and in their nations.
Luke18’s Summer Leadership Program is an opportunity for college students and campus leaders to receive live ministry training in prayer, intimacy, lifestyle, and leadership and to grow in family with fiery young leaders from across America. Daily schedule will include times in the prayer room, classroom training, practical ministry labs, family groups, and encounter nights.
Give 21 days of your summer to encounter God and grow in prayer, family, leadership, and faith for revival! We look forward to encountering God together with you this summer!
During the Program:
- Prayer Room Hours: Spend long hours with Jesus in worship and studying the Word in our 24/7 prayer room. Your relationship with Jesus comes before any ministry obligation, and we believe you must be close to Him to lead others to Him. We also believe ministry starts with prayer; gain His heart and His understanding of your assignment as you sit in prayer with Him.
- Classroom Teaching: Discover who God is, what He’s like, and what He’s doing through teaching sessions from IHOPKC and Luke18 staff. We believe the knowledge of God is crucial for growing in relationship with God.
- Encounter Nights: Wait on the Lord through worship and prayer as a group. We can tell you who He is, but we also know He desires to encounter you with His presence and His heart. We try to clear our schedule to make room for Holy Spirit to come and encounter us.
- Family Groups: Encounter true family as we do life together these five days. You’ll be split up into a co-ed small group, where we’ll eat dinner together, process our days, and contend for what God is doing in each other’s heart. As we are sharing the good, the bad, and the ugly, we invite people into a safe environment to be vulnerable with each other. We hope that this space not only serves as a place of healing, but that family groups gives you a desire and a blueprint for how to do community back home.
- Community: Grow in relationship with other fiery believers or our staff. God chose to reveal Himself in the family unit, giving Himself the terminology of Father and Son. Therefore, we believe family is a crucial part of God’s heart. Not only will you be part of a family group, but as an entire community, we spend time eating, sharing our stories, and praying together.

Week 1
Heart
During Heart Week, we will look at practical tools of intimacy to tend the garden of your heart. How and why do we keep our hearts pure before God? How is rest and Sabbath worship unto the Lord and how do we live a balanced life in following Jesus? How do we partner with God in personal restoration? And how do we, as prodigals or older sons, continually come home to a loving Father who always pursues us? One of our leaders has said the phrase, “The greatest person you’ll ever lead is yourself,” and we want to teach you to build a personal life in God that bears fruit.

Week 2
Mind
During Mind Week, we teach about what God has done, is doing, and has said He will do in order to give you perspective for these uncertain times. We will teach on revival history, the knowledge of God that grounds you in today, and the end times. We desire to prepare you to walk forward as a Christian and leader rooted in confidence of who God is and what He is planning to do.

Week 3
Hands
In our last week together, we push you out to lead in a safe environment. You will lead in our worship and prayer meetings. You’ll be encouraged to step out and try something new! During Hands Week, we equip you to love God and people well, wherever you are. Whether you are transitioning from college to young adult life or are struggling to find community, we hope to meet you where you are and give you tangible steps beyond this three week program. We hope to equip you to steward your life as a leader and to encourage you to lead from a place of the overflow in The Lord.
