Making Disciples. Everyday.

Join the College of Christian Studies in glorifying God as we train academically excellent minds and shape spiritually sensitive hearts for a new generation of transformational leaders for church and society. Learn with pastor-scholars who sharpen your passion for God and people.

Every Tribe. Although North Greenville University is affiliated with the South Carolina Baptist Convention, we claim graduates from various denominations such as Methodist, Assemblies of God, Church of God, Presbyterian, and Lutheran, among others.

Expansive Ministry Training Context

Graduates from the College of Christian Studies spread throughout the world serving as pastors, youth ministers, children’s ministers, church administrators, missionaries, college and seminary professors, military and hospital chaplains, and directors of Baptist associations, as well as in many other areas of ministry. Some students even use their undergraduate degrees as “springboards” to other careers in fields such as law, journalism, and health-related vocations.

415+ Years

Ministry experience in the faculty. We ground our understanding of faith and learning in foundational truths concerning the nature of Scripture where the Bible is valued as “a perfect treasure of divine instruction. . . . [which] has God for its author, salvation for its end, and truth without any mixture of error, for its matter.”

 

Message from the Dean

“Do you have a passion for God’s Word? Are you inspired to love and serve people as Jesus did? Have you found meaning and purpose in the life-changing power of the Gospel? Is the Lord calling you to invest your life in others as they discover and embrace this Truth? If so, you have come to the right place! Join the College of Christian Studies at North Greenville University in glorifying God as we train academically excellent minds and shape spiritually sensitive hearts for a new generation of transformational leaders for church and society.”
