Spiritual Life at
Evangel University

A Christian university atmosphere makes all the difference
in a college student's spiritual development

Imagine an entire community made up of born-again believers. Friends who support and encourage, rather than drag you down. Teachers who counsel and pray with you over tough issues. At Evangel, you'll know the sheer exhilaration that comes from living and worshipping with others who share the same values.

Students experience a time of incredible spiritual growth at Evangel. Three times a week the entire campus meets for a chapel service of music, worship and learning.

Pastor John Plake is the campus pastor who is dedicated to serving the student body with encouragement and discipleship.
