Our Mission

"Guard what has been entrusted to your care."

About the Wagner Faith & Freedom Center

Our Mission​

 

Housed on the campus of Spring Arbor University, the Wagner Faith & Freedom Center serves as the nation’s academic voice for faith and freedom. 

​

Working daily to secure the future for freedom of thought, conscience, and religion, the center equips the next generation with strategies to transform the culture. Contending for the faith, the center strategically works to ensure the next generation may share the Gospel free of persecution.  From a local township board to the United States Supreme Court, we speak truth on behalf of the persecuted and most vulnerable. We champion the cause of the defenseless and oppressed, standing for religious freedom in public forums around the globe.   

What We Do

 

  • Media & Analysis:
    We produce media programs that inform and engage, offering analysis on cultural trends and government actions. 

  • Events & Education:
    We host lectures, conferences, and seminars focused on faith, family, and freedom, equipping key influencers to engage the culture.  

  • Discipleship & Fellowship:
    Our discipleship program combines Biblical teaching, mentoring, and hands-on internship experiences, including advocacy for the persecuted.

  • Collaboration:
    We build partnerships with academic institutions, scholars, and policy experts from around the world.  

  • Resource Hub:
    We provide a centralized place where individuals and organizations can visit to learn about the Christ-centered perspective on cultural issues.
