Session #1: Mind over Media

Recap of InterHigh Monthly #3 – DNA by Design

Once again, over 150 high school and junior high school students decided to spend their saturday evening at InterHigh. This week we had a chance to look at the inner workings of the cell. The junior high school students got a head start in biology, and the high school students marveled at the intricate processes that take place in a not-so-simple cell.
Watch this animation video made by scholars at Harvard.

It’s the DNA in each cell that makes these intricate processes possible. DNA, as anyone who takes high …

Recap of InterHigh Monthly #2 – Chance vs Design

Glad you “tuned” in to this week’s recap of InterHigh Monthly 2! This past Saturday, we learned about how our universe is intricately fine-tuned, from some very smart science-minded individuals who earned (or is earning) their science and engineering Ph.Ds at Berkeley. 
We were fortunate enough to have a little bit of their brain power rub off onto us, as we explored a few of the constants that make life possible here on Earth and the strong evidence for design in our universe. Did you know that if our earth was …

“If it could be demonstrated that any complex organ existed which could not possibly have been formed by numerous, successive, slight modifications, my theory would absolutely break down. But I can find no such case” – Charles Darwin

Recap of Interhigh Monthly #1: Does God Exist?

Well we did it.  We had our first InterHigh Monthly, and we were encouraged by the sign ups and the turn out as we had almost 150 high school and junior high school students get trained on answering the five arguments for the existence of God.  Who would have thought that the arguments could be found in K-MART (Kalam, Moral, Anthropological, Resurrection and Teleological)?
Everyone, from 6th grade to 12th grade were taught how to recite and remember K-MART.  The InterHigh staff were encourage by the student’s ability to regurgitate, with …

Rise: Take A Stand For Jesus – It Happened!

We at InterHigh would like to thank all of you for attending Rise: Take a Stand for Jesus. After three months of preparations, the day finally came, and we’d like to thank God for meeting all of you at our first event on Sept. 26th. God answered our prayers, and Pauley Ballroom at UC Berkeley was packed.  Sean McDowell and the InterHigh staff were in awe at the turn out of Christian students, youth leaders and pastors.  We hope that you were all encouraged by the praise & worship, …

Recap of Rise

Standing in Pauley Ballroom, at 5:55 with a group of other college students, waiting for the clock to hit 6PM, I was more excited than I’d been in a very long time.  In just a few minutes a huge crowd of youth would be coming through those doors, and we had just three precious hours to try to interest them in a ministry that could very well help to define the course of the rest of their lives.  The pressure was on, but at the same time we mentors knew …
