  • Step inside the new home for Bushnell Golf! ⛳✨
 
Join Morgan and Jada as they take you on a behind-the-scenes tour of the Bushnell Golf Player Development Center, featuring a variety of indoor and outdoor amenities, including a simulation golf range and a 135,000 square-foot practice area.
 
Opened in summer 2025, the Player Development Center at Pine Ridge Golf Club in Springfield is one of the nation’s premier collegiate golf training facilities and is believed to be the first of its kind in the NAIA.
 
We’re incredibly grateful to Pine Ridge and everyone who contributed to this project for providing our Beacons golf student-athletes with a welcoming, cutting-edge home to elevate their game and grow as a team.

  • We were incredibly grateful to welcome back Lisa Fields to campus this week for our Spring 2026 continuation of the Becoming Beloved Community series of events!

As an author, film producer, and founder of the  @jude3project , @lisavfields brought her voice and passion for Christian apologetics back to Bushnell after previously joining us for our first Becoming Beloved Community event in fall 2023 on racial reconciliation.

Through several sessions, Lisa shared her insight into how to rebuild a fractured community through the lens of her upcoming book When Heroes Fall, addressing how to navigate situations in which trusted leaders fall. She also offered an encouraging charge to our students to pray for wisdom and rely on God as they prepare for their callings.

We are very grateful for Lisa’s time with us on campus and for the insight and encouragement she shared as we continue to pursue a beloved community.
