Christian
Collins.

Christian Collins is a speaker, author, and the founder and president of Texas Youth Summit. Raised by missionary parents who pastored a church, he entered college as a liberal Democrat and an agnostic. Listening to Rush Limbaugh made him a conservative in his junior year, and a book by Lee Strobel brought him back to faith in his senior year. That journey shapes his work with the next generation.

A seminary graduate, licensed minister, and author of Second Wind, he is a featured speaker with Turning Point USA’s Speakers Bureau and has served on the teams of Governor Greg Abbott and Senator Ted Cruz. He and his wife, Dr. Jincy Collins, live in the Houston area.

“I’m so excited to see what Christian is doing with Texas Youth Summit.”
Donald Trump Jr.Executive Vice President, The Trump Organization
