OUR PHILOSOPHY OF CHRISTIAN EDUCATION

We are an academic institution of Christian faith, training student leaders for a lifetime of Christian service. A Christian education at Southwestern Christian University is unique! It is more than just an education in a Christian environment; it is the integration of scripture and biblical principles into every class taught. This type of education means training students to relate every academic discipline to Godly truth, giving our students the ability to critique and discern every worldview that is contrary to biblical principles. Our students know and exercise a high standard, which will guide them to become leaders in the church, the home and the marketplace.
