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:
“Doubtless, we are as slow to conceive of Paradise as of Heaven, of a perfect natural as of a perfect spiritual world. We see how past ages have loitered and erred. “Is perhaps our generation free from irrationality and error? Have we perhaps reached now the summit of human wisdom, and need no more to look out for mental or physical improvement?” Undoubtedly, we are never so visionary as to be prepared for what the next hour may bring forth.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Conversation ... is like the table of contents of a dull book.... All the greatest subjects of human thought are proudly displayed in it. Listen to it for three minutes, and you ask yourself which is more striking, the emphasis of the speaker or his shocking ignorance.”
—Stendhal [Marie Henri Beyle] (1783–1842)
