Welcome to Storytime
New Saint Andrews College believes that reading the right stories matters. Knowing the stories of Narnia and Middle Earth grounds students in the right understanding of the mission in front of us. These stories shape men and women to be leaders because these stories teach us what to do with the time we have.
These stories reveal the evil of our day and name things rightly. The world is full of she-beasts, TikTok nymphs, all-seeing eyes, anti-semitic mobs, and white-coated necromancers. These enemies are what the faithful warrior is called to fight and kill. So many of these goofy ogres infest our times it takes little effort to find them. The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few.

All the great stories end with marriage and family. That is a great ending, but in this life, we are not at a great ending yet. We are still in medias res, in the middle of things. This means that marriage is a tool to use for building God’s kingdom now.
For NSA, the ultimate goal is leaders who shape culture. We need ordinary people with extraordinary courage to join us on the daring, faithful mission to take down the forces of Mordor. We are proud to know that over half of our male graduates serve as officers in local churches. These men are working to build God’s kingdom here as it is in Heaven.

The path of the leader is hard, and few know the way. But those who understand the times will embrace the task with joy and simple faith. There is a divine storyteller writing the story who bends even the darkness to His good purpose. Death cannot stop Easter. It is just the next step on the path to victory. Learn how to walk the hard roads today.
