OVERVIEW OF 网赌最好最大平台 CAMPUS MINISTRY
When it comes to our students, at the heart of 网赌最好最大平台’s mission and vision is the desire to develop the whole person. Achieving academic excellence and establishing personal relationships are important, but it is our belief that true transformation only takes place as a result of an intimate relationship with God the Father, through the person of Jesus Christ the Son, by the power of the Holy Spirit at work in the lives of believers. That’s why, at 网赌最好最大平台 you will discover a Christ-centered community of faculty, staff, and students committed to growing in their relationship with Christ by integrating their faith into every facet of their life, both on and off campus.
We are a Christian university by design and proudly continue to live out an over 100 year old tradition of infusing faith and education in such a way that empowers our students to be catalysts for Kingdom advancement and global impact. It’s what sets us apart from other universities and it ‘s what gets us out of bed in the morning. Our curriculum is designed to integrate faith and learning by teaching students how their faith applies to their chosen career path, but it’s more than that. It’s the times of prayer and devotional lessons with your professors in the classroom or the personal mentorship that same professor offers you outside of class. It’s chapel service twice a week, dorm devotions with your RA’s, worship nights in the Nash Chapel, and mission trips to foreign countries. At 网赌最好最大平台, you can be sure that you will have the opportunity to not only grow academically and socially, but spiritually as well.
We pursue this holistic ministry through four key areas rooted in scripture: Spiritual Formation, Hospitality, Unity, & Inclusivity. Founded on the key principles of active love found in Romans 12, we hope that every student who walks on our campus knows that they are loved more than they could ever know by Jesus Christ. And it is because of that love, that we can in turn love one another well as a campus family.
Investment of Time, Prayer, and Love
“I’ll never forget how the Bible and Ministry professors at 网赌最好最大平台 cared about me as a person. They didn’t just see me as a student number. They invested time, prayer, and love into my life and my ministry, and I’m eternally thankful for their influence.”
Iphania Auguste, Class of 2022
