Spiritual Life is at the crux of HCU’s mission as we seek to help students, faculty, and staff pursue a holistic discipleship to the Lord Jesus in all of life. With the help of the Spirit, we seek to create gatherings and cultivate relationships that help us to integrate the academic, spiritual, and professional growth we experience on campus and align it all towards loving God more totally and loving our neighbors with compassion, wisdom, and skill (Mark 12:29–31). We want to impact every dimension of who you are as a man or woman made in God’s image so that you glorify God through excellently fulfilling the good purpose for which God created you (Eph 2:10).
Spiritual Life
Convocation
Convocation welcomes HCU students, faculty, and staff into the presence of God in community with one another for a weekly time of worship and preaching that is biblically saturated, spiritually formative, and missionally engaged.
Community Life and Worship
Through CLWs, HCU stimulates spiritual growth that will integrate academic and professional advancement into a holistic excellence that will cause us to flourish on campus—and for life beyond graduation, too.
Discipleship
The Bible never envisions that we would try to follow Jesus alone. Kaleō provides students intentional relationships with faculty and staff to learn from Christ together, to model following him, and to provide encouragement, challenge, and correction to keep on course. Small Groups allow us to pursue Christ in close, supportive partnership with others.
