Faith & Learning
We have a rich tradition of integrating faith and academics at Northrise, and one need not be a theology student to be completely exposed to the blending of the two. We offer students weekly rhythms that keep their spiritual lives intact with their academic lives, ensuring that the two are thoroughly integrated. Through chapel, Bible studies, praise nights, and student fellowship, students grow vertically in their relationships with Jesus, but also horizontally in community with one another. Stronger together, in union with Christ, the NU student and alumni bodies are changing Zambia and the world beyond, one heart at a time.
Integration of Faith and Learning
Our faculty and staff are wholeheartedly committed to partnering with our students to help them grow in these areas. We begin with a faith commitment that informs all learning, which also shapes expectations for living and results in moral and spiritual virtues. The moral and spiritual virtues have vital cognitive significance and strengthen the entire academic spectrum of teaching, learning, and research.
We believe humility strengthens and arrogance hampers the learning process. Humility combined with faith, love, gratitude, and other virtues are essential for our balanced approach to Christian higher education.
Chapel Services
Northrise University hosts weekly Chapel services every Monday as one of its most visible and engaging spiritual activities on campus. Chapel has over the years become a tradition at Northrise as a valued time of praise, worship, and gleaning from God’s word.
Due to current COVID restrictions, only first-year students, staff and faculty are attending on-site chapel. Second to fourth-year students are attending chapel through online streaming.
