Our Mission

The mission of Covenant College is to explore and express the preeminence of Jesus Christ in all things. We educate Christians to engage culture and cultures, to examine and unfold creation, and to pursue biblical justice and mercy in community. With the student-faculty relationship and strong teaching and scholarship at the foundation, our Christ-centered community seeks to help students mature in three primary areas:

• Identity in Christ
• Biblical frame of reference
• Service that is Christ-like

We offer the world biblically grounded men and women equipped to live out extraordinary callings in ordinary places.
