Because Spiritual Formation Happens Best in Community...

Rev. Carla Sunberg (‘04) l NTS Alumni Association President
Co-District Superintendent, East Ohio Church of the Nazarene

Raised as a missionary kid I never had much time to be around grandparents or aunts and uncles. The church family became my extended family and the community that helped to raise me.

Ten years after completing my Master of Divinity degree, I find myself exceedingly grateful for the three years I spent at NTS. I was challenged to think deeply and broadly about God’s mission in the world. I learned how to listen to and love people. My ability to listen to God’s still small voice grew. I started to journey with friends and professors who continue to play a large role in my formation as a pastor. And recently, in a conversation with a current NTS student, I found myself wanting to go back.

Lord of the Flies

Rev. Carla Sunberg | NTS Alumni Association President
Co-District Superintendent, East Ohio District Church of the Nazarene

I am so very grateful for my NTS education and all I was able to learn. My life was forever changed by my NTS experience, which gave me a new and greater appreciation for the Word.
