What is TNL?

TNL, run by Master Plan Ministries, is a Christian student club where you can connect with others and grow in your faith!


Whether it is a camping trip, a free dinner, a weekly Bible study, retreat, or one of our many other activities, we aim to provide a positive atmosphere for growth and fellowship.

We’ve discovered that having a personal relationship with Jesus Christ gives our lives incredible meaning and purpose, and we’ve found that nothing else compares. We would love to talk with you about your spiritual journey!

Master Plan Ministries

Preparing others to reach and influence the world for Christ

Russ and Linda Akins founded Master Plan Ministries in 1985 while reaching students at Fort Lewis College in Durango. 


Along with the continued ministry at FLC, Master Plan has also been at Colorado Mesa University since 1994.  We were at Adams State University from 2019-2023, the Auraria Campus in Denver from 2009 to 2018, and the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque from 2015 to 2017.  In 2023, Master Plan was pleased to welcome students from San Juan to the Fall 2023 MPM retreat.

We intentionally spend time sharing the Gospel, meeting one-on-one and in group Bible Studies, and seeking to develop the skills of others for the glory of God.


Our goal is to see as many people as possible going and making disciples to reach the nations with the Gospel one person at a time.
