WORD OF GOD<br />

CONFESSION OF FAITH<br />

The <strong>Cornerstone</strong> Confession is the foundational doctrinal statement of <strong>Cornerstone</strong> University and<br />

is signed annually by trustees, faculty and staff. It expresses our commitment to the key teachings of<br />

Scripture as interpreted through the ecumenical creeds of the early church, the chief insights of the<br />

Reformation and evangelical Christianity.<br />

THE CORNERSTONE CHRISTIAN WORLDVIEW<br />

The Christian worldview is a comprehensive outlook on all parts of life based on the Holy Scriptures—<br />

the Bible. <strong>Cornerstone</strong> University and all of its employees have committed themselves to the Christian<br />

worldview as the comprehensive outlook on all parts of life and as our guide for living and understanding<br />

the world. The <strong>Cornerstone</strong> Christian Worldview is the embodiment of this lived-out commitment.<br />

THE CORNERSTONE<br />

ACADEMIC VISION<br />

An articulation of the<br />

principles that <strong>Cornerstone</strong>’s<br />

faculty and staff commit to<br />

embody and live out so that<br />

<strong>Cornerstone</strong> students can be<br />

educated to be influencers in<br />

our world for Jesus Christ.<br />

THE CORNERSTONE<br />

BEAUTIFUL CHRISTIAN<br />

COMMUNITY<br />

The principles to which<br />

<strong>Cornerstone</strong>’s faculty and staff<br />

are dedicated to exemplify so<br />

that the <strong>Biblical</strong> commands to<br />

love God, love neighbor and love<br />

one another are richly embodied<br />

throughout <strong>Cornerstone</strong> and<br />

bless and shape all peoples from<br />

all diverse walks of life.<br />

MARRIAGE AND<br />

HUMAN SEXUALITY<br />

<strong>Cornerstone</strong> University<br />

stands with historic<br />

Christianity in affirming that<br />

the Bible contains clear<br />

teachings in the areas of<br />

sexuality and gender. As a<br />

Christ-centered university,<br />

we will seek to nurture<br />

students to engage their<br />

culture as Christ followers in<br />

every aspect of their lives,<br />

including their sexuality.
