| A Gospel Summary |
What is the Gospel that Paul said was the power for salvation for all who believe? It cannot be just anything we call "gospel." No! It must be what Paul (and the other Apostles) said is the Gospel. You might be surprised to learn that the Gospel is not about you so much about God and his Son Jesus Christ. Learn the gospel and its summons. (more info)

| Resume Builder |
Involvement with InterVarsity often competes with students who need internships to pad their resume. Often, people don't realize that students who are involved with leadership in InterVarsity gain a lot of useful skills. Being in InterVarsity leadership will give a student skill sets that are comparable to many secular internships. This table is a resource to InterVarsity staff and students. Staff may use this information to give students an organizational incentive to be involved with the fellowship. The students may use this information to prepare a resume, personal statement, curriculum vitae, interview, letter of intent, or cover letter. (more info)

| The Story of God |
When desiring to share the Gospel with both Christians in training or non-Christians in evangelism, choosing what is "vital" and what can be left out is quite challenging.
This paper is an attempt to offer some of the core truths of the Gospel without getting bogged down with too many details. As with all ministry on this side of Heaven, this is a work in progress and as God refines my understanding of Him, some of this paper may be revised. To God be the glory. (more info)

| Using Your Time for the Kingdom - NSO Training Game |
Feel free to edit the squares to reflect your campus/regional culture. The game is designed to be frustrating because it's impossible to fit everything in that we would ideally want. That teaches the skills of prioritization and overlapping (e.g. having dinner while hanging out with freshmen). I'd suggest having groups work independently and away from each other, so that even if a group gets an aha moment and realizes nothing is preventing them from stacking one square on top of another, other groups don't find out immediately. The debriefing is especially important in this game. (more info)
