Our Vision
As a school of the Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod (LCMS), we strive to present the clearest expression of God's Word centered on the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus as our Savior as is stated in the Lutheran Confessions. You can expect members of the Theology Department to teach the timeless truth of the Bible with energy and warmth, applying the Gospel message to each student's life. Our faculty have a wide range of experience in church ministry and teaching. CUAA students come from a wide range of religious backgrounds and are encouraged to bring those experiences into the class discussion. Together, professors and students gather around the truth of the Scripture to be shaped by the Gospel of Jesus Christ for lives of faithful service.
