About the College
Multnomah has been devoted to teaching the Bible to men and women since the 1930s. As the motto coined by one of the founders says, "If it's Bible you want, then you want Multnomah!"
Not only will you earn a degree at Multnomah, but you also will experience life change. Multnomah's education is more than learning in the classroom...it's learning hands-on in ministry...it's learning during late night talks with friends in the coffee shop...it's learning about the heart of God through prayer.
A Christ-Centered Education
At Multnomah, we desire for Jesus Christ to influence every area of life. He is the foundation for all genuine education. He is the foundation for every facet of your life. As we model our servant-leader, Jesus Christ, He transforms our futures and our lives. He transforms our cultures and our lifestyles.
Academic Excellence
Our faculty have been selected with you, the student, in mind. Merging a breadth of scholarship, wisdom from the Scriptures, teaching excellence, and personal commitment to Christ guarantee that you will be challenged and equipped for lifelong learning and service to Christ. The rigors of classroom instruction are combined with the challenges of research and critical-thinking skills. We also insist our teachers be able communicators in the classroom and effective mentors outside the classroom.
Warm, Supportive Campus Environment
Effective education educates the whole person. Community life presents challenges but provides tremendous opportunities to build lifelong friendships. It creates opportunity to make service to others a lifelong habit. It allows faculty and staff to give each student individual attention befitting one created in God's image.
Imagine learning about family values right in a faculty or staff member's home over dinner or dessert. That is the rule rather than the exception at Multnomah. Our family community takes seriously the virtues of Christian civility, grace, and love.
Real World Preparation
Multnomah is not an ivory-tower experience that leaves its populace unprepared for the world's harsh realities. Rather, we continually seek ways to train students to have the greatest possible impact on the world today. Students are instructed in and saturated with a biblical, Christian worldview designed to prepare them for any situation encountered. We offer opportunities to make the world the classroom with cross-cultural experiences and internships in the community. Work side-by-side with your instructor as you share the gospel in the community or minister in a home for abused women. The opportunities are endless.
Perhaps none of these ingredients is exceptional by itself. When combined in one institution, they are the ingredients for a unique educational opportunity for you. Do you wish to become a lifelong learner of the Bible with the skills to successfully contribute to our world as a loving servant-leader of Jesus Christ? We may have a place reserved for you!
