Ohio Baptists partner with Cedarville University

COLUMBUS, Ohio — Cedarville University, a Baptist university of arts and sciences, has entered a partnership with the State Convention of Baptists in Ohio.

The state convention agreed to recommend Cedarville to all “Southern Baptists as an accredited, quality, four-year university that embraces Southern Baptists.”

“We’re thrilled with the alliance with Cedarville,” said Jack Kwok, executive director of the Ohio convention. “Cedarville is a quality Baptist school. They wholeheartedly embrace Southern Baptists. A significant number of our pastors are Cedarville graduates. We’re looking to them as a resource for future church leaders. They embrace our theology, our polity and our missiology. We would recommend Cedarville not only to Ohio Baptists but all Southern Baptists.”

“We have many Southern Baptist young people in our student body and some of our key trustees are Southern Baptist pastors or laymen,” said Cedarville President Paul Dixon. “Our alumni attend and pastor Southern Baptist churches. A number of our administrators, faculty and staff attend Southern Baptist churches in our part of Ohio.”
