ChristianMinistriesOveremphasized? Some may question whether a Christian college of arts and sciences such as Cedarville should emphasize evangelism and discipleship. Public Relations Director Ron Coriell affirms that it is unusual but totally in keeping with one of the objectives of the college . "It is stated in our catalog that the institution desires 'to encourage growth in Christian character in each student , and to help the student accept his responsibility in faithful Christian service. ' Cedarville does not merely give lip service to this. Rather, the comprehensive Christian Ministries programs offered to students give them many avenues to live out their Christianity."
