The campaign setting makes extensive use of Divine Magic, and Arcane Magic is pretty scarce. With that in mind, I have thought about taking the Nondetection spell and using it on our tent in order to prevent the enemy from observing us during down time.
My question is, if cast upon an object, such as a tent, would we also be difficult to detect within the tent? Is my Nonedetection Tent considered in my possession if I post it up for the night, and sleep within it?
Any other suggested uses for Nondetection?

It's a GM call whether or not your tent is in your possession when you're sleeping inside it, but personally I'd say this wouldn't work. It definitely wouldn't work for anyone you might be sharing your tent with. But why not just cast it on yourself?

I wanted to be able to protect our party. We just came from a high fantasy realm to a very low magic realm, but we know that the #1 power is around is a church. If the church wanted to meddle, I wanted it to be difficult.
I understand the GM call of the Tent being in my possession, I was just REALLY hoping to get that extra +5, but you're saying that being within the Nondetectection Tent will not make us Nondetection-able?

Nope, it'll just make the tent nondetectable. Your GM might rule different though. Or might like blackbloodtroll's "security blanket" better. ;)
You could also cast the spell a number of times, and give every party member a "nondetection pebble" to carry around with them. Or cast the communal version, if your level is high enough. Counter-scrying is an option too: casting Detect Scrying lets you know if you're not being paranoid. And Detect Object tells you if any of the churches' holy symbols are nearby. Or any crystal balls.

I DID like the "security blanket" idea. It was honestly going to be my Plan B. I'm guessing that the Nondetection Pebble wouldn't work, as the item is carried on the person. I figured something like a tent would work since you were inside the Nondetected Item, kind of similar to an Invisible Tent.
We're all around Level 9, so I'm thinking our Wizard probably has a Invisibility spell. He could make an Invisibility Tent, and that would be enough for me.Thanks for the advice, guys. :-D
