The love of Christ on display
For the Christian nurse, their career is an opportunity to show the love of Christ in action every day.
Our Nursing program focuses on the spiritual and physical being. We help you develop a nursing world view that will propel you into a lost world that needs care for every aspect of life.
Our courses will challenge you to think on your feet and take action based on knowledge obtained in a hands-on classroom environment.
Maranatha has offered students multiple opportunities to use their skills in service for Christ on foreign mission fields. We have listed a few of their stories below.
- Missions Team Finds Albanians Open to Gospel
- Medical Missions Team Visits Chad
- Global Encounters: Who Will Tell Them?
Our faculty knows nursing
“Nursing is never dry and boring. There is always something that takes place in the classroom that students are having that “Aha moment.”
They are able to enjoy the subject matter, because there is something new and refreshing every day.”

Our Academic Distinction
