Come find spiritual life that permeates every aspect of campus at Ä¢¹½TV. To promote spiritual growth, our students take a Bible class each semester, and many other classes and activities incorporate prayer and scripture. Each day, all students gather together with faculty, staff and visitors for Chapel, where they spend a few minutes in worship and in prayer, in order to strengthen the entire campus community. At night, students participate in various devotionals, singings or Bible studies around campus and in the dorms.
Ä¢¹½TV strives to prepare students not only for professional life, but also for eternity.

Devotionals offer Ä¢¹½TV students additional ways to improve their personal spiritual lives. Campus-wide devotionals are organized and led by the student body, making them relevant and challenging to students as a whole. Freed-Hardeman encourages students to participate in devotionals, but students are not required to attend.
There are several types of devotionals. Examples of campus-wide devotionals include:
If you are interested in participating in a devotional, contact the student leader of that organization or person in charge of leading the devotional.
All students at Freed-Hardeman are required to take one Bible class each semester until graduation. Bible classes range from the basic introductions of Christianity to in-depth discussions of specific religious concerns/topics. Most of the students’ Bible classes are text based and the Bible is used as the textbook for the class. After Bible class, the students’ biblical attitudes then carry on to other classes where they engage more deeply with other professors and students. This emphasis on spirituality isn’t confined only to the Bible classes, but Biblical truths are explored in the context of all academic programs. The overall Bible curriculum integration on campus cannot be compared to the academic experience anywhere else. Studying God’s word with fellow students and professors brings a greater religious atmosphere to campus.
Ä¢¹½TV emphasizes the importance of spiritual life and encourages students to participate in community outreach and service projects that embody the principles of Christian stewardship and compassion.
The importance of spirituality and service in daily life should never be overlooked. We are commanded in scripture to continuously serve God by serving others. Ä¢¹½TV offers a large variety of mission trips and service opportunities for students to become involved locally and globally. As an Ä¢¹½TV student, there are many ways to be involved in ministry. There are many ways to get involved, whether it’s through:
