Be challenged. Be change.
We believe that God has uniquely gifted, shaped and called you. We also believe that study can and will equip you for your purpose, give you a bigger vision, and change you as a person.
Eastern’s courses are centred on biblical foundations and a Christian worldview, with a strong focus on critical thinking and enquiry, and learning that affects the whole person. Our vibrant community life is rich and diverse, prayerful, thoughtful and fun.
At Eastern, we are privileged to challenge and learn with you, and then launch and release you into the future God has prepared.
