Christian living is not simply a Sunday activity. Your faith accompanies you through every day and each major decision you make. College is one of the largest decisions you will make. In college, you start a journey that builds the foundations and friendships that last a lifetime. It is a time of discovery and learning that does not exclude the faith and service that has accompanied you to that threshold—or the virtues that carry you through your life. Choosing a Christian college means that you will learn in a supportive environment that helps you understand and develop your career while remembering God’s plan for you.
At LETU, we believe that work is part of your personal holy calling. (Read our mission. Is it yours, too?!) We want to bridge the gap between Sunday faith and Monday’s work. Whatever your calling, we help you develop the skills that will help you be a Christian in whatever profession you pursue.
In a Christian college, the relationship between Christian teachings and living a Christian life is part of discovering your career. Faith, work and worship are part of an integrated life of discipleship.
Developing the talents that are inborn to you through work and education are a path of improvement and service.
What is a faith-based approach to education?
As a Christian College, LETU helps students integrate their faith into their future. Like in your everyday life, Christianity does not replace your coursework. We integrate Christian teaching and life into how we frame and apply education.
In addition to core classes, courses offer insights and education about Christian living in the real world.
Examples of Christian college courses include:

Whatever your business or calling, there is a place for your faith. In 2011, LETU established the Center for Faith and Work.
We also pride ourselves in cross-cultural exchange and truly understanding God’s world. Our study abroad programs and missionary programs are incredible opportunities to help people and spread God’s word. Every year, groups of LETU students spend their spring break week traveling with a missionary organization. You learn the biblical foundation of missionary work and the technical skills that best serve you during your time of service.
