BJU Press: About Us
BJU Press is committed to Christian education. Christian teachers and administrators play a crucial role in educating students for the next generation. To support Christian educators, BJU Press produces textbooks and materials that shape a biblical worldview, are academically rigorous, encourage critical thinking, and are supported with technology solutions. Our Core Values are listed below.
Biblical Worldview
Christian educators often struggle to show students how the Bible is relevant to the subjects they teach. As a result, many decide to push the Bible to the margin of the educational experience.
We at BJU Press define biblical integration as biblical worldview shaping. We use the biblical themes of Creation, the Fall, and Redemption as the lenses through which to look at all academic disciplines. As students view academic subjects through the lens of Scripture, they learn how to redeem those subjects back to God.

Academic Rigor
We are committed to producing education materials that are both biblically faithful and academically sound. Although memorization of facts and assimilation of information is a necessary part of all learning, rigorous education is not identified as simply having more pages, more problems, and more pressure. Instead, in an academically rigorous environment, students take an active role in their learning and are motivated to master age-appropriate material. Our materials use hands-on-learning, creative problem solving, and other research-proven instructional strategies to engage students and inspire real learning.

Critical Thinking
Education is more than just making good grades—much more. It is learning to think for oneself, to use discernment, and to consider values when confronted with conflict. It is not only knowing the facts and processes (which have their place) but also thinking critically and expressing one’s ideas. Our textbooks help develop these skills with inductive teaching, hands-on-learning, and probing questions.

Technology Solutions
The days of teaching using a chalkboard or overhead projector are fast becoming distant memories. Teachers are looking for innovative ways to engage students in learning. We at BJU Press offer cutting-edge technology enhancements that do just that. We provide helpful resources for the teacher and the student—for use in both the classroom and on the go.
