Statement of Faith
We believe in one God, the maker of heaven and earth: Father, Son and Holy Spirit, as revealed in the Holy Bible and made known in Jesus Christ our Lord;
We believe that Jesus the divine Son became human, was born of a virgin, ministered in word and miracle, died for our sin, was raised bodily from the dead, ascended to
God’s right hand and is coming again for His people;
We believe that the Holy Spirit is presently ministering through the Christian community, empowering lives of godliness and service;
We believe that the Holy Bible is completely God breathed, true in all its teaching, and the final authority for all matters of faith and practice;
We believe that Jesus Christ established His church on earth to carry out His saving mission among all ethnic groups and formed her to be one holy people;
We believe in God’s saving grace that calls forth from all people: faith, repentance, confession, baptism, and new life and ministry through the Spirit; and
We commit ourselves to the teachings, practice and defense of these truths until the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
We commit ourselves to the teaching, practice, and defense of these truths until the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ”

The best way to change a culture is to start a church. The best way to start a church is to start a college.

University Goals
No human technology can replace `nature`s technology`, perfected over hundreds of millions of years to sustain life on Earth. For those in power, the questions are straightforward. Are they prepared to jeopardize their careers – or their profits – for our children’s children? Are they ready to put short-term politicking aside and help deliver a sustainable plan for the future? Are they willing to take difficult decisions on behalf of voters they’ll never meet?
