Why Should You Invest in a Messiah Education?

“Messiah College’s approach to education concentrates on the holistic nurturing of students’ intellectual, spiritual, and personal development.

We are committed to educating students to be lifelong learners who seek to transform society, build communites, and, in the process, make the world a better place in meaningful and tangible ways. Toward that end, we are dedicated to graduating Messiah alumni who embody virtues of love, integrity, humility, and hospitality as they seek to fulfill their vocations.

A Christ-centered education enables students to look beyond the present moment—to live and serve beyond themselves by engaging in [intellectual pursuits and] work that will have a lasting impact on the Church and society.” What makes a Christian college unique is its commitment to preparing students for lives focused on eternity.”

       Kim Phipps, president

“The compelling purpose of Christian higher education is to help students become agents of hope and courage in a world that often desperately fears the future.”

       Doug Jacobsen, distinguished professor of church history and theology at Messiah College
