Coming this February: Servants' Summit— a new annual conference for ministry leaders.
"Serving the Next Generation" is the theme for the 2025 conference, featuring keynote speaker Bryan Osborne of Answers in Genesis.
As the youth in our families and churches face the growing antagonism of wokeness, how can we help them stand for truth? Get ready for inspiring messages and practical topics!

The purpose of the Delta Epsilon Chi Honor Society is to encourage and honor outstanding academic scholarship, approved Christian character, and Christian leadership ability among the accredited schools of The Association for Biblical Higher Education (ABHE). The name Delta Epsilon Chi means "approved in Christ" and is taken from the first Greek letter in each word of this phrase in Romans 16:10. Based on the size of the graduating class, the faculty has been privileged to nominate three seniors.
