At Ohio Valley University, it is our goal to "expand the kingdom one student at a time". We believe that you, as our student, are a holistic being comprised of a mind, body and soul. It is our purpose to nurture each aspect of your whole self.
We hope to help you use your mind to develop a Christian world view. We hope to help you to embrace Christ with your heart and soul. And we hope to help equip you to be strong in your faith so that you can use your body to serve in His kingdom.
Colossians 3:1-2: Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.
We believe that we are not physical beings having a spiritual experience, but rather spiritual beings having a physical experience. In Student Development we set our hearts on your transformation into a fully equipped servant of the kingdom.
In the following pages we will outline many of the practical services we offer in Student Life. But please know that each of these services is designed carefully with your holistic transformation in mind.
