WELCOME TO 
YOUNG &  FREE

Ashley Gage is an inspiring speaker known for her ability to connect with young people and empower them to grasp more fully the transformative power of a life lived in Jesus Christ. With a background in campus ministry, local church ministry as well as nonprofit leadership, Ashley is passionate about creating a ministry of hospitality where all people are being shaped and formed with the guidance of the Holy Spirit into a community of Christ followers that reflect the fullness of the image of God through the study of God's word, spiritual disciplines, and fellowship.    

Having worked with diverse groups of young people across various retreats, camp and conference settings, Ashley brings her real-life experience and passion wherever she goes.  Her relationally engaging and interactive sermons, presentations and workshops are spaces to grow, be encouraged and be empowered to navigate a life with Christ during life’s complexities.  

In addition to her professional responsibilities, she serves on leadership teams with ministerial partners like Wesleyan Holiness Women's Clergy, The Call at MNU (Youth Theological Institute), The Wynkoop Center for Women in Leadership and as a CCCU Campus Ministry Commissioner.  

Ashley enjoys spending time with her husband and their four vibrant children, which keeps her busy as she is their biggest cheerleader! At her core, Ashley believes that every young person can make a positive impact, and she is committed to providing the tools and encouragement needed to turn that potential into reality.  

Ashley is excited to bring her energy and insights to this year’s Young and Free Camp, where she looks forward to how God will move and work in and through the next generation of leaders and change-makers. 

Thomas Miller and Chance Roberts go way back, building their friendship during their MNU days and traveling to camps while serving together as part of the Relentless team. Jade attended Trevecca Nazarene University before moving to Missouri. Chance and Jade met at Y&F Camp at Pinecrest in 2021. This camp has a special place in the heart of all three worship leaders, and they are thrilled to be back this summer! 

Thomas now serves at Trinity as both the Youth & Worship Pastor. Jade serves as the Worship Pastor at Harvester, and she and Chance love to lead worship together, especially with the youth band.
