REVIEWS
Read What Students Are SayingWhen I came to Faith I wanted to learn more about God and the Bible and I have been very impressed with the academic level achieved here. The professors are very knowledgeable in their areas of expertise and teach in a personal and interesting way. They welcome questions and do not judge or condemn if I have a different opinion, but they are extremely careful in making God's Word, the Bible the focus of their teaching. I have learned so much at Faith!
