President Phil Greenwald

Our hearts are overflowing with gratitude as we celebrate the wedding of our daughter, Tori, to Elijah! Watching them step into this new chapter together, grounded in faith and purpose, is the greatest joy a parent could ask for. Stephanie and I are so blessed to welcome Elijah into the family.

I am deeply humbled by this recognition, but the real story is what God is doing through our incredible faculty, staff, and students.

What an incredible week for the global Church of God Ministries - Anderson, Indiana family at IYC 2026! We love seeing our alumni, current students, and future students all together repping the "M" and showcasing the strength of our MACU Family. Our deep commitment to CHOG Ministries is rooted in a shared mission to equip the next generation with faith and purpose.

Happy 250th Birthday, America! Today, the MACU Family joins together in deep gratitude for the blessing of freedom and the legacy of those who built this nation before us. As we look to the future with hope and confidence, we pray God’s continued blessing over our country and our communities.

We are excited to share that MACU has been accepted into the The Association of Theological Schools in Chicago as an associate member. This milestone marks an important step forward as we begin the self-study process this fall toward accreditation. This opportunity reflects our continued commitment to academic excellence, Christ-centered education, and preparing students to lead and serve with faith and purpose.

As I begin my fifth year serving as President of MACU, one word comes to mind: gratitude.

Thank you to our students, faculty, staff, alumni, trustees, and friends for your commitment to our mission and your belief in what God is doing through this University. Together, we have seen incredible growth, celebrated meaningful milestones, and continued preparing students to lead with faith and purpose.

The best is yet to come. I am more optimistic than ever about the future of MACU and look forward to all that God has in store for our community.

School history was made this season as MACU Baseball earned its first-ever trip to the NAIA World Series. We are incredibly proud of our student-athletes and coaching staff for the way they competed with excellence while continuing to put Christ first. As Evangels, we know every game is an opportunity to represent Christ, our families, and our University well. Congratulations on an unforgettable season.

This past weekend, we celebrated a milestone that represents years of hard work, faith, and perseverance. Congratulations to our graduates. We are of each of you and the purpose God has placed on your lives. As you step into this next chapter, know that you are prepared to lead with conviction, character, and excellence wherever God calls you.
