Your calling deserves world-class training.
Within Communication Arts, we interweave communication theory and practice; students learn theory and how to apply it in a dynamic environment. Advances in technology are also incorporated in our courses as they continuously impact the field. For instance, Second Life, Twitter, podcasting, Web 2.0 and blogs have altered how we send and receive communication. Studying changes in the field makes our educational experience relevant to the present and a foundation for the future. All of our coursework is explored through the lens of a Christian worldview.
Stay ahead of the rapidly evolving communication landscape. In an age of algorithmic content delivery, real-time news cycles, and crisis communication via social platforms, you need both theoretical foundations and adaptive skills. Our Journalism and Communication Studies programs challenge you to engage culture redemptively—whether you’re crafting strategic messaging, investigating truth through journalism, or building digital communities.
The entertainment industry is undergoing its most dramatic transformation in a century—from streaming wars to virtual production to AI-assisted animation. We’re passionate about training filmmakers, animators, and visual artists who don’t just adapt to these changes but lead them. Using industry-standard equipment including virtual production stages and professional editing suites, you’ll create content that both entertains and illuminates truth.
Music has power to lead people into God’s presence and express theological truth. Whether you’re training for worship leadership in the local church, pursuing classical performance excellence, or developing skills in contemporary Christian music, our programs integrate rigorous musical training with deep spiritual formation. You’ll develop both technical mastery and theological depth, preparing to lead congregations, perform on professional stages, and compose music that glorifies God and edifies His people.
Live theatre creates an immediacy and intimacy that no screen can replicate—a direct encounter between performer and audience where truth can be explored, beauty celebrated, and the human condition illuminated. We train actors, directors, and theatre artists who understand both classical foundations and contemporary practice. Whether you’re preparing for professional stage work, educational theatre, or community arts leadership, you’ll develop the discipline, artistry, and theological grounding to use performance as a redemptive force in culture.
