Why BJU Bruins Athletics?

Athletics at BJU aren’t an end in themselves—they help accomplish BJU’s mission of building Christlike character.

Participation in intercollegiate sports helps students develop leadership skills and discipline, and BJU Bruins athletes seek to honor the Lord through spoken testimonies and by their conduct on and off the field.

Our athletics program also helps build unity among University students, faculty, alumni and friends.

Because athletics bring such value to BJU, we created the Bruins Foundation to make sure the athletics programs have the support they need. We want to see the benefits of athletics continue to enrich life at BJU for years to come.

How the Bruins Foundation helps

“No matter what the outcome of a game, my personal testimony is what matters most. Do my actions on the field distract others from seeing Christ or do they point others to him? It’s important that my testimony for Christ is strong so I can use the game of soccer to be a light for him.”
