LPU at GrowPoint is the college and ministry training program of GrowPoint Church, located near the shores of Lake Erie—just minutes from Cedar Point and within reach of Cleveland, Ohio, a vibrant city known for its culture, creativity, and deep sense of community. We are a community compelled by grace to grow, and we are passionate about equipping the next generation of leaders through the lens of our core values: God’s Word, Intentional Presence, Joy & Laughter, Humble Confidence, Unending Pursuit, Goodness & Kindness, and Embracing Feedback.

As a proud extension site of Life Pacific University, students receive a Christ-centered, Biblically grounded education and intentional leadership development, while earning a fully accredited degree—all at a cost that is 50–70% less than most private colleges and universities.

Our program is more than academics—it’s a transformative journey. Students grow in their understanding of God’s Word, develop humble confidence in their leadership, and learn what it means to live with intentional presence in ministry and life. Through hands-on mentorship, retreats, community events, and real ministry opportunities throughout GrowPoint and our region, students experience the joy of discovering their gifts and calling. They’ll also gain practical insight into church planting—learning what it takes to start, grow, and lead a thriving church built on truth, grace, and mission.

At LPU at GrowPoint, we believe growth happens in the context of grace, community, and joyful pursuit. Whether you feel called to plant a church, serve in ministry, or influence the marketplace, this is a place to be equipped, challenged, and inspired—to discover your story, for His glory.
