Cornerstone University is an inter-denominational, Christ-centered university located in Grand Rapids, Michigan. We seek to enable individuals to apply unchanging biblical principles in a rapidly changing world through both traditional and adult undergraduate and graduate programs, Grand Rapids Theological Seminary, Asia Baptist Theological Seminary and the multi-faceted broadcast outreaches of Cornerstone University Radio.

At Cornerstone, learning finds its fuel in Truth. And we believe that all truth is God's Truth. It is as unchanging as God Himself and is the only reliable anchor for intellectual pursuits. Here you'll find true freedom to explore, question, investigate, conceptualize and understand all of God's creation. We go to great lengths to encourage our students to become leaders who shape the culture around them—diving into the world with passion, and finding God in the most curious places.
