Faith

Nothing matters more to you than your Christian faith. At Biola, the Bible is an integral part of your education. Since Biola began in 1908, we have remained committed to biblically centered education — strengthening students in mind and character. And our core values are central to all that we do: truth, transformation and testimony.

As part of this commitment, you have the opportunity to:

  • Integrate faith and learning. Learn the truth. Every class at Biola is taught from a biblical worldview. Throughout the program, you’ll learn how to apply the Word of God practically to your career and life.

  • Study the Bible as part of your degree. Imagine taking courses like “Old Testament,” “New Testament,” “Acts/Early Christian History” and Bible electives that will expand your understanding of God’s Word.

  • Experience spiritual development. Be transformed in mind and character. At Biola, God is not merely a concept to be understood intellectually. We desire to help you grow in your relationship with Christ as you seek to become more like Him.

  • Thrive in an all-Christian community. Learn, grow, and pray together in an environment where all faculty, staff and students are professing Christians.

To actually sit in a group of fellow Christians with the same beliefs and pursue the same goal was just awesome. To this day, words can’t describe that experience. It was all God.
