The Difference.
A letter from the President
Dear Generous Friends of OCU:
Oakland City University is making a difference.
Our sacred University distinguishes itself from the
majority of higher education institutions through
an emphasis on spiritual formation. Robert
Mullholland, Jr. defines spiritual formation as
“the process of being conformed to the image
of Christ for the sake of others.” Mullholland’s
definition and the University’s motto, “Enter to
Learn – Go Forth to Serve”, run parallel. Our
greatest joy is developing the head, the heart,
and the hands of students in service to God.

“Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and
pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by
the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.”

Don’t Forget to
Remember
Doug Johnson, Senior, OCU Student
It is because of an opportunity through Oakland City University
that a difference has been made in my life. A few months ago, I
boarded a plane in Atlanta, Georgia, with a final destination to San
Pedro Sula, Honduras in Central America. I had never been to
Honduras, nor had I ever been on an international missions trip.
I had no idea of what to really expect. I just knew that I wanted
a life change. I truly wanted to be broken and put back together
differently than when I started.
“…God used me to change lives
in Central America.”
Honduras was hot, sweaty, bug infested, dirty, yet beautifully
amazing. I wish that I could somehow paint a picture or come up
with the right combination of words to give you a visual idea of
what we experienced together. Honduras reaffirmed my “Never
Stop Smiling” mission and showed me, firsthand, that a smile truly
does speak in all languages. A smile truly can alter one’s mood and
change his or her day. Never Stop Smiling.
Probably the most flooring moment of my Honduras trip occurred
Over the course of eight days and seven nights, I managed to
laugh, cry, work, sleep, smile, sing, play and love in a way I never
had before. Each morning, at six a.m. the OCU team split up
with some of our group painting a house in preparation for a
soon-arriving family of missionaries, while the rest of our team did
construction work in places throughout the village. Although we
had a diverse team with different interests and backgrounds, we
had one goal that week…love on the people of Honduras. We
primarily ministered to the children at the Faith Home orphanage.
We also had opportunities every day to go to different villages
where we fellowshipped, delivered food and attended church.
as our team loaded up Saturday morning and headed back to the
airport. I was literally struggling to let go of the little children as we
said our goodbyes. I saw the look on their faces. I am sure they
observed the same look on my face. I knew that no matter what I
had done in my past, no matter how many regrets I had, no matter
where I had been or what I had seen, God used me to change
lives in Central America. I knew as we said goodbye that I would
never be the same person again. God used the broken children of
Faith Home Honduras to change my life. I think I can represent the
entire OCU Missions group when I say our hearts will always be
heavy for Honduras as we left a piece of us in Central America.
Each night our group was blessed with the opportunity to sing
“Our God” (by Chris Tomlin) during the worship service.

“…we recognize that God has big plans.”
Making a Difference in
Worship Arts
Throughout scripture, the Bible speaks of the importance of worship. As
believers of our Lord, Jesus Christ, we understand that God longs for our
worship. Beginning in the fall of 2013, Oakland City University launched a
new Bachelor’s degree in Worship Arts. OCU hired Andrew Goldman ’12
as Worship Arts Admissions Counselor and Chris Cook ’13 as Worship
Arts Lecturer. These fine young men head a new program that directly
impacts church ministry.
Andrew Goldman states: “Our goal is to greatly increase the number
of Worship Arts majors within three years.” The program
is currently located in the School of Arts and Sciences.
However, the Chapman School of Religious Studies is
working on a second track for students desiring a greater
emphasis in pastoral ministry. Andrew says:
“Our current approach is from the standpoint of
educating individuals who desire to lead worship.
When the other degree in Religious Studies with a
worship concentration is finalized, then we will have
both models.”
Chris Cook adds: “Andrew and I bring an interesting
dynamic to the program. Andrew has the performance
background. I add the music education expertise to
the Worship Arts degree.”
Currently, the new degree has started with several
students and the forecast is bright for the Worship
Arts program. Additionally, President Barber is
strategically launching a new contemporary praise and
worship band, The Great Command, as an outreach
to congregations. The University’s Earthlight group
will continue its long history of serving General Baptist
churches. This new group will carry out a similar focus
leading churches in praise and worship music.
Andrew believes: “We can promote the Worship Arts program
through the ministry of our student music groups, campus
events such as Soulfest, and even through networking with other
Christian organizations and schools.” He goes on to say: “The
“But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true
worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for
the Father is seeking such to worship Him. God is Spirit, and
those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”
~ John 4:23-24
potential is oozing out of this place and we recognize that God
has big plans.” Oakland City University is making a difference in the
lives of students through the Worship Arts program. It is our goal to
provide churches across the country with educated and equipped
worship leaders making an eternal difference.

“Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also
reap generously. Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under
compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times,
having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.”
