We have been lighting this fire for generations.
It is core to our mission, embedded in our culture, intrinsic in our values.
It is the heart and soul of who we are.

It is felt in every corner of our community.
Through our intentional walk with one another.
And our deep relationship with our heavenly Father.

 

Our Authentic Story

ACU’s special spark carries beyond the classroom. The impact our graduates have on their communities through their personal and professional lives is extraordinary.

We Light the Fire Within was created to tell the stories of inspirational faculty, alumni and students who are working together to become the passionate difference-makers God has called them to be. The campaign features examples of light bringers, courageous leaders, game changers, risk takers, creative thinkers and God seekers.

This integrated branding campaign launched in Fall 2021 and is being shared through digital, print and broadcast advertising, as well as social media.

Television Commercial

The world needs creative thinkers and courageous leaders who inspire and uplift us. Risk takers and game changers who set the world ablaze. Abilene Christian University ignites this fire within its students by fusing academic excellence and purposeful Christian community.

An original music video, created with the help of several alumni, accompanies the new branding campaign. Learn more about the creation of the video.
