°¼Í¹ÊÓƵ

As part of the application, students are required to agree to the following statement of faith:

Anchored in a distinct Reformed identity, °¼Í¹ÊÓƵ seeks to equip effective Kingdom citizens who are passionate in their love for God and neighbor. Together, we confess the Triune God revealed in Scripture and that the Bible is the only inspired and authoritative Word of God. We believe and teach that both Scripture and creation reveal a sovereign God and that all things are under His control, finding their origin, purpose, and fulfilment in Him. We believe that God created us in His image and gave us the task of stewarding His creation in order to develop its potential and take good care of it.

Tragically, humanity’s disobedience corrupted all of creation, bringing division and strife, misery and death. But in His loving grace, God reclaimed His world through the life, death, resurrection, and ascension of Jesus Christ. Even though the effects of the fall will continue until He returns again, Christ has rescued us from the curse of sin, and He reigns as King over all. Furthermore, He summons those He has redeemed to work, through the power of the Spirit, as part of His kingdom everywhere.

°¼Í¹ÊÓƵ seeks to cultivate an environment that promotes spiritual development and the welfare of our students. We welcome men and women who are committed to biblical, Christian principles. The faculty, staff, and students at °¼Í¹ÊÓƵ make up a Christian community learning to speak the truth in love as brothers and sisters in the Lord. Christ calls us to encourage one another as we strive to live in faithful obedience to Him. Therefore, it is expected that students will seek to obey the Lord’s teaching in every area of their lives, on and off campus. Students who do not share our Christian commitment may not be in a position to appreciate Dordt’s educational experience. As such, students who enroll at °¼Í¹ÊÓƵshould be fully prepared to abide by the Christian standards and the policies of the university, as expressed in the Student Handbook and Course Catalog.
