Maranatha Baptist University and Answers in Genesis Establish New Collaboration
Maranatha Baptist University (MBU) is delighted to announce a new collaboration with Answers in Genesis (AiG). Known best for their Creation Museum and the Ark Encounter, Answers in Genesis uses apologetics and creative media to defend the Christian faith, to expose the error of evolutionary thought, to deliver the message of salvation, and to teach a biblical worldview. Correspondingly, Maranatha instills a thoroughly Christian worldview, training students to think critically, to clearly articulate and graciously defend Truth, and to serve with excellence in their God-given careers.
The mutually beneficial MBU-AiG initiative acknowledges alignment of each ministry’s core values and goals. For MBU, it provides an expanded platform from which to present Maranatha’s educational programs. For AiG staff and families, it represents new avenues to access Maranatha’s premium education offerings through Maranatha’s Online & Distance Learning division.
Maranatha Online has presented flexible choices for undergraduate and graduate programs since 2008. Students work entirely online at their own pace or attending live classes virtually. High school students can earn college credits through Dual Enrollment, saving time and money. Best of all, there’s no need to leave home or current employment, and with six start dates a year, it’s never too late to jump on board. Explore Maranatha’s Online & Distance Learning options today.
Of course, Maranatha’s beautiful campus in Watertown, Wisconsin, awaits students who prefer the enriching experience of attending resident classes. With its nurturing community of attentive professors and kindred peers, edifying chapel sessions, and plentiful fine arts and athletics opportunities, the benefits of the campus experience are immeasurable.
“We are grateful for AiG’s dynamic initiative ‘to proclaim the authority of the Bible,’” Maranatha’s CEO Dr. Matt Davis comments. “And we appreciate that, though exposing error, AiG’s champions are always gracious in their methods. The message captivates audiences of all academic levels and is scripturally sound. Maranatha and AiG share a passion to inspire others to uphold the faith. We both strive to develop leaders who will champion Truth in a culture that has largely rejected the very concept. Therefore, we are excited to enhance our collaboration with Answers in Genesis, “To the Praise of His Glory.”
