Mission

We help foster thinking and culture-making that is faithful and creative, bringing into conversation the historic, Christian faith with the best of human learning.

About Us

Biola University shares a goal with every other university - to train people to think well. But what makes us unique is our desire to help people think Christianly. “Thinking biblically about everything” presents us with a goal that is challenging and complex.

We want biblical thinking to permeate our teaching, scholarship, acquisition of knowledge, educational practices, and culture-making. This goal to “think biblically about everything” establishes the integration of faith and learning not as an add-on or option, but a vital and integral piece in Biola University’s mission.

Watch Dr. Rick Langer describe how we think about integration.
