Spiritual Emphasis
Camp Ozark was founded and still operates as a non-denominational Christian summer camp. Camp Ozark promotional material states that Camp Ozark seeks to provide a wholesome, upbeat Christian environment for all of its campers. Camp Ozark also promotes a spiritual theme termed "F.I.T.", which stands for "First Is Third." This theme represents the idea that in order to "win" in life as a Christian, a person must put God first, others second and themselves third.
During the summer, Camp Ozark conducts 3 nightly worship services: "Lifeline" for grade school campers, "Prime Time" for campers in Junior High and "Ozone" for High School campers.

Famous quotes containing the words spiritual and/or emphasis:
“Whenever we encounter the Infinite in man, however imperfectly understood, we treat it with respect. Whether in the synagogue, the mosque, the pagoda, or the wigwam, there is a hideous aspect which we execrate and a sublime aspect which we venerate. So great a subject for spiritual contemplation, such measureless dreaming—the echo of God on the human wall!”
—Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
“Coming to terms with the rhythms of women’s lives means coming to terms with life itself, accepting the imperatives of the body rather than the imperatives of an artificial, man-made, perhaps transcendentally beautiful civilization. Emphasis on the male work-rhythm is an emphasis on infinite possibilities; emphasis on the female rhythms is an emphasis on a defined pattern, on limitation.”
—Margaret Mead (1901–1978)
