Aims of the Department

Religious Education at Southwestern Adventist University facilitates the understanding, appreciation, and application of:

  • The Bible
  • A Christian worldview
  • Seventh-day Adventism

Specifically, our theological training emphasizes a Christ-centered and Bible-based education on campus, in the classroom, and in the community, balancing theory and practice and harmonizing the dynamics of the local church and global mission within a distinctive Seventh-day Adventist context. We integrate a multifaceted matrix that includes inspiration, implication, implementation, and involvement.
