is an institution that pursues wisdom.

As outlined by our Concept, we are a
community that learns through the lens of
Jesus Christ to make a difference in this world.

A LIFE OF PURPOSE
At Spring Arbor University, our Concept is so much
more than a mission statement. It is the driving
force behind our purpose both individually and
collectively. And that purpose permeates the lives
of our students and our alumni long after they
venture into the world to pursue their purpose as
ambassadors for Christ.
