An Invaluable Investment

My years in the M.Div. program at Cairn University were life-transforming. I don’t say that lightly. I often describe it as drinking water out of a fire hydrant. There was so much truth that I found myself learning, relearning, and applying during my time. God used those years to shape me, to help me wrestle with the things that I believed about life and faith through the lens of God’s Word.

Regardless of what your role may be in the local church, I can’t overstate the benefits of formal theological and practical training. That’s why I’m so excited to announce that The Advance Initiative is partnering with Cairn University to offer graduate degrees at deeply discounted rates.
