What Our Students Are Saying

“The business program covers EVERYTHING I need to achieve my goals -entrepreneurship, accounting, management, leadership, and mentorship from real business people - and all of it based on a Biblical foundation”

God taught me a new appreciation for His word. Never in my life has the Bible spoken to me more than it does right now

“As a mature student and a relatively new Christian, I find the pastoral program and the campus community very inspirational. The quality of education and faculty are second to none.”

“I was able to let God fix pains, fears, and things that held me back in my heart, and see a grand new vision for my life.”

“I travelled across the pond because I wanted to pursue my career in Aviation with as much of a biblical foundation as possible. I have not been let down! The quality of higher education I have received in Bible has surpassed my expectations, and the community that Prairie has worked so hard to develop clearly shows the school’s heart for its students.”

I’ll use skills like problem solving with emotionally charged situations, leading small groups, and working with others who are different than I, to succeed in the workplace. I have a solid background in leadership now that I’ve been to Explore. I believe it will help me succeed in whatever I put my mind to throughout the rest of my life.
