Mid-America Christian University offers a unique community aspect unlike any other school. Programs, such as small groups, are offered to help build a community feel and provide opportunities for students to grow and help others grow. The school has a unique Pastoral Care Program in which students get hands on training on how to provide pastoral care. Students visit patients in a local hospital, providing care to those patients while improving their own caring skills. Another great quality offered through the Education Department is the hands on training students receive. Not only are students well equipped to go into teaching as a profession once they graduate, but they will have also finished all of the state and national testing required to begin teaching immediately after graduation.

Mid-America Christian University equips students to impact their world for Christ through achieving Bible-based academic excellence in a Christian environment so that students professionally serve in their chosen vocation/ministry.
The mission statement reflects MACU’s stable, historical philosophy of education in the enduring identity and heritage of the University. This mission guides all the purposes, goals, and activities of the University. The mission and purpose of Mid-America Christian University affirm the basic goal to equip men and women for effective Christian ministry, proving that a person does not have to be a pastor or a missionary to have a ministry.
All Christians are called to serve Christ and minister to others. Many graduates exercise this responsibility as pastors and full-time church ministers. However, others are called to serve as musicians, teachers, counselors, or in other ways. The mission statement is congruent with the objectives and purposes of the institution. It continues to be evident in practical application.
