Hard as Nails Ministry
Everything that the modern day youth deal with is intense and
in your face. Sex, drugs, violence, and hate are in our faces everyday. Society puts
those things on a pedestal to be worshiped as a god. From music videos, to television
shows, to radio programs these "false gods" are saturating this society. We live in a
society that worships the creation, while turning their back on the creator. It often
looks like the road to destruction is the better way. If we profess that Jesus is Lord
than we have to be as intense or more intense with His message.
Hard as Nails ministry is a youth and young adult ministry
program designed to bring the message of Jesus Christ in intense and dynamic ways. Hard
as Nails embraces the missionary spirituality of Pope John Paul II's "New Evangelization.
We travel throughout the United States, individually or with teams of youth, spreading the
message of Christ at youth retreats, youth groups, conferences, and high schools. Hard as
Nails Ministry tries to develop teams of youth all over the United States to travel with a
Hard as Nails minister who will lead them, challenge the young people to grow into amazing
witnesses of Jesus Christ to their fellow youth and to adults.
Each member of Hard as Nails has gone through the trials and
tribulations that come with the journey of faith. We have shared in the experiences of
the cross and the crown of Christ. We understand that living for Christ in these days can
be one of the hardest things to do, but we know that it is Christ who gives meaning to
our lives. We know that the love of Christ can pierce that hardest heart and that Christ
gives us the strength and the hope to get through the trials that life presents.
We are a non-profit ministry that is based in Paramus, NJ.
We have branches of the ministry in Syracuse, NY, Ithaca, NY, and Washington, DC. If you
