They are the smartest, hardest-working, caring team of educators I’ve ever seen! They go the extra mile in caring for the lives and the learning of every single student.”

My course work was very affirming and enriching.

I realized that I need to be teaching, leading, and equipping those in my sphere of influence. I was reminded that I am enough, that who I am is acceptable to God and the way he made me is useful to the body of Christ.

Jonathan, Current Undergraduate Student

My leadership program challenged my thinking!

I gained new perspectives. Through lots of interactive discussions and feedback, I can truly define what it means to be a leader who leads like Christ through the Holy Spirit. And I gained the ability to better navigate the relational aspects inherent in any leadership setting.

Brandon, Current Undergraduate Student

Learning to live like who I am in Christ is foundational.

I have gained the ability to celebrate God’s creative handiwork in myself and others knowing that each one was created uniquely for a purpose (Ephesians 2:10).

Raymond, current undergraduate student
