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:
“Happy is that mother whose ability to help her children continues on from babyhood and manhood into maturity. Blessed is the son who need not leave his mother at the threshold of the world’s activities, but may always and everywhere have her blessing and her help. Thrice blessed are the son and the mother between whom there exists an association not only physical and affectional, but spiritual and intellectual, and broad and wise as is the scope of each being.”
—Lydia Hoyt Farmer (1842–1903)
“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)
