The mission of Bethel College is to be a community of learners building lives of commitment for leadership in the Church and world. Bethel's liberating academic programs challenge the mind, enlarge the vision, and equip the whole person for lifelong service.

In July 2013, Dr. Gregg Chenoweth became Bethel College's 7th President. Following six months of review by employees, donors, community members, Church representatives, and Trustees, Bethel College launched five institutional priorities and nearly 200 strategies in March 2014 called the GREATer Agenda: 2014-2018. This represents the first leg of a two-phase journey toward Bethel's 75th Anniversary in the year 2022. The long-term, grand aspiration is that Bethel become a Top Five most influential Wesleyan college in America. How? By becoming GREATer over the next five years. Why? For the greater glory of God.

What produces a GREATer Bethel? The five priorities are:
  • "G" - grow by 1,000 students (200 traditional, 800 adult/graduate)
  • "R"- perpetuate conditions for spiritual revival so compelling it spreads across our region
  • "E" - serve our students and each other with such excellence we surprise them, and we earn an encore
  • "A" - improve campus aesthetics with $20 million in designated projects ($5.8 million raised in first six months) and
  • "T" - testify more broadly to who we are and what God is accomplishing among us.

Bethel College does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, age, sex, disability, national or ethnic origin in employment opportunities, in keeping with applicable state and federal laws.
In keeping with the mission of the institution, Bethel College seeks applicants* with a strong commitment to the values and lifestyle of evangelical Christianity and who profess a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. As a Christian institution, we require faculty and staff to adhere to the College's Lifestyle Covenant and to enforce a religiously based statement of responsibilities for all College employees. Women and minorities are encouraged to apply. Bethel College, as an educational institution operating under the auspices of the Missionary Church, reserves the right to prefer employees on the basis of religion (Title VII, Sections 702-703, United States Civil Rights Act of 1964 as amended).
