About Cliff College

In the widest view, Cliff College looks for a world in which the joyful news of God’s kingdom is experienced everywhere by everyone. This big, universal picture is consistent with our theological posture as a Wesleyan-Methodist institution, expressed in our historic motto: ‘All for Christ, Christ for All’. 

In order to see this vision become a reality, Cliff College has a core purpose, which is to inspire and equip ambassadors of the joyful news of Jesus. Expressed within the language of our core constituency, this purpose is to energise the Methodist people to be a growing and evangelistic Church. 

Our part, as Cliff College, in purposefully working towards this vision, with all who choose to partner with us, is to be a dynamic catalyst for the transformation of God’s people as ambassadors of joyful news.
