The San Jose campus is set in a pivotal
worldwide hub,
advancing in technology and rich in diversity. As the California Bay Area's culture
moves into the uncharted waters of progress and pluralism, people are living under a growing cloud
of ambiguity about God, their world, and their lives. This is the mission field we have in mind as
we train men and women to spread the clear, eternal and transforming Gospel of Jesus Christ. We are
a learning community committed to declaring this unique and timeless truth into our uncertain culture.
We invite you to come learn with us. At Western, we are dedicated to equipping you with what you
need to face the challenges of ministry in today’s culture.
