Go Beyond boundaries; live courageously
There are some things you just can't teach in a classroom. Renew is a seven day program for our high school students in January. Students can choose to travel, intern, or take a class on campus that's not offered during the semester. Our Renew program is just one more way we develop students into life-long servant leaders.

Timothy’s mission is to develop servant leaders, who live out their purpose in life for Jesus Christ. And these Renew trips — where they see and experience things that they can’t in the classroom — help students start asking hard questions. Like so many other parents, I sent my son on a Renew trip with the prayer that he would serve others in the name and love of Christ.
