Our Vision

Training Biblical Disciples to Make Disciples in a Postmodern World.

Elements of Our Vision

1. Discipleship
   Training Disciples to Love, Follow and Obey Jesus Christ
   The Salem Campus is focused on making and growing biblical disciples. Students are challenged to develop an intellectual and experiential understanding of God's love. The goal of our instruction is intimacy with God, which produces passionate, obedient followers of Jesus Christ who are compelled to minister His love in their neighborhoods and throughout the world.
2. Cost Effective
   Profitable Training at a Practical Price
   The Salem Campus is focused on offering a quality education at an affordable price.
3. Ministry Training
   Preparing With Purpose to Proclaim Good News
   The Salem Campus is focused on training men and women to minister God's love through churches and para-church organizations. Classes are offered that fulfill ministerial credentialing requirements. Practical ministry classes and seminars are offered that prepare both vocational and non-vocational ministers to increase their effectiveness.
4. Life-Long Learning
   The First Step of a Lifetime Education
   The Salem Campus is focused on encouraging continual learning through obtaining additional degrees subsequent to the Associate's degree and through continued personal development classes. Academic excellence, analytical thinking and cultural understanding are nurtured to produce disciples capable of ministering in a postmodern context.
5. Bible Based and Spirit Led
   Proclaiming God's Word as Absolute Truth
   The Salem Campus is focused on encouraging a Christianity that is objectively true and rationally defensible. God's Word is taught as absolute truth which has been communicated from God to man and is applicable to everyone in the twenty-first century. The Holy Spirit sheds light on God's Word bringing comfort, conviction and direction to the heart of man.
