"While at Emmaus, I was trained to think critically about life, faith, and God's Word. I've never regretted spending years of my life in such a nurturing environment both academically and spiritually. As the years go by I am only more thankful for all that I learned; I can't imagine any college could have done a better job of preparing me to be a teacher and a follower of Christ."

"My Emmaus education gave me a firm foundation in God’s Word as well as an understanding of history. It has been through my biblical lens, framed through my time at Emmaus, that I engage my students in instruction, correction, reinforcement, etc. And it is because of the tutelage of Emmaus professors, like the late Dr. Patten, that I am able to give my students a lens to view history and seek to impact my students and the world for Christ."

“Emmaus is exactly what I wanted in a school. We’ve got a focused Bible major for everyone, and a dedicated Computer Science major, as well, with great professors. Those two majors are rarely seen together, and even more rarely are they both done well, which is exactly why I would recommend Emmaus to anyone and everyone!”
