Например, проводятся большие групповые «библейские беседы» один или два раза в день, часто за которыми следуют обсуждения в малых группах («время в каютах»). Организация была основана в 1941 году в Гейнсвилле, штат Техас, пресвитерианским пастором Джимом Рэйберном и в настоящее время возглавляется президентом и генеральным директором Ньютом Креншоу. Young Life работает по всему миру, используя несколько различных организаций с разной направленностью. В 2021 году Young Life подверглась расследованию Комиссии по равным возможностям в сфере занятости за предполагаемое невыполнение обязательств по защите своих сотрудников от сексуальных домогательств и расовой дискриминации. Одна из предполагаемых жертв сексуального насилия сообщила, что рассказала более дюжине человек о преследованиях, которым она подвергалась, и ей сказали, что это «Божий план» для нее. Ее дело было закрыто после того, как она получила компенсацию от Young Life. Young Life работает, используя «5 К»: налаживание контактов, клуб, активисты, лагерь и комитет. В 2021–2022 годах в среднем 294 761 подросток посещали еженедельные клубные встречи, а в среднем 127 709 – еженедельные мероприятия для активистов, которыми руководили 46 340 волонтеров.

Эвангелизационные аспекты
Летние лагеря имеют выраженный акцент на евангелизацию или свидетельствование, с проведением больших групповых "библейских бесед" один или два раза в день, за которыми часто следуют дискуссии в малых группах – "кабинных встречах". Например, в большой группе может быть 500 подростков, а в малой – 12. Сама организация "Young Life" оценивает, что 33% всех посещающих летние лагеря впервые встречаются с Иисусом. (Эта оценка основана на отчетах директоров лагерей о количестве розданных Библий, числе участников "пути нового верующего" и тех, кто вышел на "Say So"). Согласно статье в газете Vancouver Sun за 1994 год, из 350 учеников, посетивших одну конкретную неделю в лагере Малибу в Британской Колумбии, Канада, более 100 публично засвидетельствовали во время неформальной церемонии "Ночи посвящения" в последний вечер, заявив, что посвятили свою жизнь Иисусу. Один из участников лагеря сказал: "К тебе относятся как ко взрослому. Здесь гораздо больше свободы, чем в других христианских лагерях".
According to a 1994 Vancouver Sun newspaper article, out of 350 students attending one particular week long session at the Malibu Camp in British Columbia, Canada, more than 100 publicly testified during the informal ceremony of “Commitment Night” on the final night saying they had committed their lives to Jesus. One camper said, “You’re treated like an adult. There’s a lot more freedom here than other Christian camps.”
Tony Jones describes Young Life's Statement of “non negotiables” as telling staffers that “they must not introduce the concept of Jesus and his grace until the students have been sufficiently convinced of their own depravity and been allowed to stew in that depravity (preferably overnight).” Eight members of Young Life's teaching staff based in Durham, North Carolina resigned their positions after these “non negotiables” were announced.
Тони Джонс описывает "неподлежащие обсуждению" принципы "Young Life" как инструкцию для сотрудников, гласящую: "они не должны представлять концепцию Иисуса и Его благодати, пока студенты не будут достаточно убеждены в собственной испорченности и не получат возможность поразмышлять над этой испорченностью (желательно за ночь)". Восемь членов преподавательского состава "Young Life", базирующегося в Дареме, Северная Каролина, подали в отставку после объявления этих "неподлежащих обсуждению" принципов.

Политика ЛГБТК+
Young Life (США) допускает участие студентов ЛГБТК в мероприятиях Young Life, но не позволяет им быть волонтерами или занимать руководящие посты. В анкетах организации гомосексуальность описывается как «образ жизни», который «явно не соответствует замыслу Божьего творения». Коннер Мертенс, первый действующий игрок в американский футбол колледжа, открыто заявивший о своей принадлежности к ЛГБТК, был активным участником группы в подростковом возрасте и планировал сотрудничать с ней в колледже, но ему было отказано из-за его сексуальной ориентации. Политика Young Life также распространяется на сторонников ЛГБТК. Местный лидер Пэм Эллиотт ушла в отставку после того, как её попросили удалить фотографию со своей страницы в Facebook, демонстрирующую поддержку ЛГБТК-сообщества.
