- Mission of Coastland-
STRATEGIC MISSION
PRIMARY MISSION - DIEM:
The primary goal for Coastland University is to equip students to be like
Christ as they fulfill the great commission. The challenge to follow Christ
compels us to pursue a personal and professional life-style of:
· Discipleship
Jesus told us to "go and make disciples." We have a desire to see
students grow in three vital areas of discipleship:
1. Spirituality - Knowing Christ and discovering their gifts
2. Relationships - Showing Christ and sharing their gifts with others
3. Ministry - Making Christ known by utilizing their gifts in the Church and
in the world.
· Instruction
Instruction will come through the classroom and extracurricular ministries.
However, the most important instruction will be learning how to be taught
by the Holy Spirit. We believe God will speak to you, instruct you, and guide
you as you grow in your walk with Jesus. Our teachers are simple vessels in
the hand of God.
· Enrichment
The goal of our instruction is your enrichment. It is to cause you to grow
into the person who is equipped to fulfill the call of God on your life.
· Ministry
We believe that ministry is not just a future goal - it's a daily call. Our
desire is that you begin to be used in ministry from the day you begin your
course of instruction at Coastland University.
By the time you graduate, you have more than a degree - you will truly be
equipped to minister to this generation!
Our Core Values:
Coastland University is here to equip the Body of Christ for ministry. We
are driven to provide the best Christian College education without being a
financial burden on our students. It is summed up well in I Peter 4:7-11:
(7) The end of all things is near; therefore, be of sound judgment and sober
spirit for the purpose of prayer. (8) Above all, keep fervent in your love
for one another, because love covers a multitude of sins. (9) Be hospitable
to one another without complaint. (10) As each one has received a special
gift, employ it in serving one another as good stewards of the manifold grace
of God. (11) Whoever speaks, is to do so as one who is speaking the utterances
of God; whoever serves is to do so as one who is serving by the strength which
God supplies; so that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ,
to whom belongs the glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen. NASB
Our Vision:
Coastland Christian Bible College & University is guided by a well-defined
philosophy that fosters a devotion to learning and a commitment to excellence.
At our core, we desire that Jesus Christ be proclaimed to all nations.
Coastland University will prepare each student to become a competent minister/teacher/pastor.
We will accomplish this by drawing students into an integrated experience
of intellectual challenge, spiritual growth, and leadership development. Thus
we will:
· call students to Christian character;
· expect academic excellence;
· equip them for success in their Ministry/vocations;
· mentor them in leadership;
· prepare them for service;
We also see our graduates going out into the Churches and breaking down denominational
divisions, bringing true unity to the Body of Christ.
