Preparing Students for Leadership

The cornerstone of Northrise University is a commitment to prepare people for both professional and voluntary leadership in the church and in the business community. We believe that true Christian service is birthed out of reflection, study, intellectual investigation, and personal involvement in some form of community service.

As devoted Christians, we believe a person’s life cannot be complete without a personal relationship with God. At the same time, we are aware men and women must be equipped to thrive in their personal lives and careers. We share in God’s vision to empower the people of Zambia, to bring economic revitalization, and to foster an environment of both spiritual and economic hope.
