Purpose

The faculty of the College of Christian Studies contribute to the mission of UMHB to be a Christ-centered institution of higher learning by seeking to empower our students to become intellectually prepared servants of God. A key part of the College’s mission is to provide introduction to the Old and New Testaments courses (the "Engaging" courses) for every undergraduate student so that the students not only know information about Scripture, but are also able to interpret and apply it. The College offers courses in advanced biblical studies, biblical languages, church history, theology, philosophy, Christian Ministry, and archaeology. The faculty consists of Christians committed to the service of the church and academic excellence who seek to broaden students’ vision and focus their commitment through intellectual and spiritual growth.
