Summers at NsP are a great time to slow down and connect. The month of June is full of RYM conferences (Middle School Texas and High School Colorado). Beginning in July, we will have a series of fellowship gatherings at various homes. See the calendar below and check back for more information. Have a great summer RYF!

Each summer, our students participate in summer conferences put on by Reformed Youth Ministries (RYM). These conferences feature a week of solid Reformed teaching, community, and fun activities for everyone. The Middle School conference takes place here in Texas, and the High School conference takes place in beautiful Estes Park, Colorado.

Dates for the 2020 conferences coming soon!

Each summer, For the Nations Refugee Outreach hosts a summer program for refugee children from Northeast Dallas, Richardson, and Garland. Teams from all over the country come to support the work of FTNRO during these crucial weeks. This summer, we will have the opportunity to join this effort as we serve from July 28-August 2. We will stay together in FTNRO's apartment in east Dallas, while during the day we will serve at VBS, afternoon activities, and more. In the evenings, we will have unique opportunities to learn about people from various cultures who now call our city home.

The first chapter of the Bible tells us that mankind was created in God’s image, male and female. We’re then told that in some way, men and women together glorify God by complementing each other’s unique design. And yet, because of our fall into sin, there are unique ways that men and women try to fill the gap between the way life ought to be and the way it has turned out for us. It is only when we understand God’s good design, our unique rebellion, and God’s plan to redeem us through Christ, that we can actually rightly see ourselves in the mirror, the way God created us, and the way he is remaking us through Jesus. 

So that’s what we will do in this study. We will look into the mirror of God’s Word and seek to understand his design for men and women, for sexuality, for gender, for relationships, and for redemption. These are major topics. They are important biblical concepts. And yet so often we don’t talk about them as we should. This study guide is designed to help us do just that.

What's so special about the Church? Why do we need it? Why can't our spirituality be expressed and strengthened exclusively at home, or in Christian schools, or on the soccer field?

You may have found yourself asking these questions already, but my guess is, when you go to college or to pursue your career, you’ll be confronted head-on with them. Even now, you are probably presented with a buffet line of spiritual options that could easily (if you’re not careful) take the place of church: youth clubs, after school Bible studies, sports teams, options with friends on the weekends, and more. So, the question before you is essentially the same: Why do I need the Church?

In this study, we will survey some of the key topics in the Pastoral Epistles, letters Paul wrote giving instructions for young church planters. Each chapter will focus on one particular topic that Paul dealt with and will show how it helps us to understand our need for the Church.
