N.K.S.T, officially Nongu u Kristu u i Ser u sha Tar or the Universal Reformed Christian Church, is a Christian Reformed church based in Mkar-Gboko, Benue State, Nigeria.
The church is a multi-ethnic Christian community drawn from all nations and cultures of the world, united in the doctrine of Jesus Christ. Its self-proclaimed purpose of existence is to glorify God through worship and proclamation "of the Good News of Salvation" to all humanity, as well as observation of the sacraments as instituted by Jesus Christ, to strengthen the communion of the Saints in order to responsibly teach its believers and instill self-discipline.
The church has spread all over Nigeria. Its members are predominantly the Tiv language-speaking tribe, but also people from other tribes in Nigeria. It was first introduced in Sai on 17 April 1911.
