The Centennial Year of Colorado Christian University was a significant time of celebration, not only because of who we were in 2014-15, but also because of the rich legacy of our heritage institutions and the people who envisioned and guided them. These people lived out their callings to facilitate their institution's growth and success, sometimes in the face of extreme challenges. Clifton L. Fowler's vision to start a Bible School in Denver was, in his own words, "rolled on him" by the Lord. It was a great vision. From our 100 year retrospection, we can see that it was only a fragment of the vision in the mind of the Lord who used His chosen servants throughout these 100 years to accomplish His amazing purposes. In good and difficult times, we can see that in spite of the inadequacies of each person involved in the operations of the institutions, thousands of students have passed through these many halls of learning and have gone out and changed their worlds. We chose the phrase "Celebrating 100 Years of God's Faithfulness" for our Centennial Year theme, acknowledging the reality that Colorado Christian University exists as a testimony to that truth.
