Center for Biblical and Theological Studies

The Bible department is the heart of our curriculum, and now it is at the heart of our campus. Opening this fall, the Center for Biblical and Theological Studies will enhance the quality and scope of instruction for both the Bible major and the distinctive Bible minor, required of all students. Through six carefully crafted courses, talented Bible professors teach the content of Scripture and its relevance for all of life. The goal is transformation - equipping Cedarville graduates to be Christ-centered influencers in every profession.
