Kingdom Culture Conversations
Northwest Christian School's annual student-centered, Gospel-reading campaign is called REDLETTERCHALLENGE.ORG.
And, we tend to get so excited about all of it -- students, the Gospels, and the art and science of inspiring students to develop a daily devotional discipline -- that things tend to get carried away!
That's certainly the case with Fall 2026. Launched in elementary chapel on Wednesday, August 26th, REDLETTERCHALLENGE.ORG invites students into the daily discipline of time in God's word. We read one chapter per day, working our way through the four gospels, over the course of three months. Along the way, as we work to inspire a love of daily time with Jesus, we provide extrinsic reminders of the intrinsic worth that such a commitment can make in their lives!
To assist our families with this process, as we move through the Red Letter Challenge, each day for the next several weeks, we're going to publish a podcast episode within the Kingdom Culture Conversations venue, that features Geoff Brown reading that day's gospel chapter.

Tyler Collins, Bible Department Chair and Sophomore Bible Teacher, Northwest Christian School: High School Serve Day is Tomorrow! What does Missions Learning accomplish at Northwest Christian?
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Many school advocate for "service learning", an educational concept defined as "an educational approach that combines meaningful community service with instruction and reflection to enrich the learning experience, teach civic responsibility, and strengthen communities." But, at Northwest Christian, the bones of this concept are restructured, repurposed, and retitled "Missions Learning".
So, pragmatically, what is the difference between service learning and Northwest Christian's "Missions Learning"?
Tomorrow, March 4, is one of the 2025/2026 school year's "High School Serve Days" - a day completely dedicated to Missions Learning. As such, we thought it would be interesting to explore this question, as well as several others, with Tyler Collins, the high school teacher/leader that drives the program forward.
What is the difference between service learning and Missions Learning? What happens when over 500 high schoolers set out to work within the community? Where do they go and what do they do? And, perhaps most importantly, is it having the desire impact in the lives of students?
Missions Learning is an aspect of Northwest Christian's Pursuing His Purpose game plan and strategy. For more information, on Pursuing His Purpose, please follow this link to an explanatory PDF or visit this page within the school's website.
