January always feels like a reset. Fresh pages. Fresh goals. Fresh questions about where we’re headed—and who we’re becoming along the way.

Why We Chose BVCS: Real Alumni Stories

2025-09-29T11:17:33-07:00

We recently asked our alumni to fill us in on how they are doing. One couple in particular stand out as they talked about their journey…Their story always circles back to the same foundation: the Christ-centered education they received at BVCS. Since graduating, they’ve built a life together, welcomed their first daughter in 2024, and stepped into careers and callings shaped by the values instilled in them as students. “The BVCS family gave us a foundation of faith that carried us into marriage, parenting, and our professions,” they shared. They are not alone. Across the country, BVCS alumni are thriving in [...]
