Timber Wolf Lake
A Young Life Camp
APEX is a student-led national conference that welcomes, enriches, and connects new and returning Unbound students. Unbound is known for its unique culture and lasting community, and APEX is the main event connecting this incredible group of people. It serves as an orientation for Ascend students, but on a deeper level, it cultivates an attitude of learning, purposeful living, and creativity for all attendees.
APEX is for everyone who seeks to live differently from the rest of the world and be a part of something real. Even if someone has no previous experience with this community, he or she is entirely welcome to join the event!
At this year’s APEX, everything is centered around change and how attendees can discover why change is necessary for further growth in every facet of their lives. As Christians, we are called to change and turn away from the world’s way of doing things so that we can pursue Christlikeness, but this can only happen through accepting our own responsibilities and understanding our limitations. APEX 2025 matters because change is inevitable, and it is essential for those who wish to honor God fully to understand how to intentionally respond to change.
