Biography and Professional Achievements

Malachi Little is a graduate of the Colorado Christian University School of Music, where he earned degrees in Music Production and Engineering, Music Composition, and Piano Performance. He is also a member of Pi Kappa Lambda, the national music honor society.

Malachi now serves on the faculty of CCU’s Music Production and Engineering program, where he teaches and mentors students, working alongside them to provide technical support for the School of Music’s concerts, recitals, and productions. Through both classroom instruction and hands-on experience at events, he seeks to give students meaningful, practical opportunities while preparing them for the creative and technical demands of professional music and production environments.

At the heart of Malachi’s work is a passion for the intersection of art and technology. His interests span music performance and composition, audio engineering, live production, immersive audio, visual design, and emerging technologies. He believes that an interdisciplinary understanding of art and science enables students to become not only better technicians but also more thoughtful and intentional artists. As an educator, he encourages students to develop both the technical fluency to realize their ideas and the artistic discernment to make those ideas meaningful.

Outside of CCU, Malachi serves as Creative Director at Parker Evangelical Presbyterian Church, where he integrates music, production technology, and design to create cohesive and engaging experiences that serve the church and help facilitate its worship of Christ.

Faith and Learning

Malachi believes that Christian education should ultimately equip students to use their gifts in service to Christ and his Gospel. Music, production, technology, and the arts offer unique opportunities to communicate with a world deeply in need of the truth of Christ. A strong understanding of both artistic expression and technical craft gives students powerful tools through which they can tell meaningful stories, communicate truth, and engage people in ways that words alone often cannot.

For Malachi, ministry is at the heart of the Christian life and should therefore shape the purpose of learning and work. Whether students are called to serve within the Church or throughout the broader music and production industries, he encourages them to view their craft as an opportunity for ministry. His goal as an educator is not simply to prepare capable musicians, artists, and technicians, but to equip students to use their creativity, knowledge, and excellence to serve others, share the Gospel, and ultimately glorify Christ.
