Statement of Faith & Philosophy

STATEMENT OF FAITH

Our school is committed to a Christian worldview. Our faculty, curriculum, and operational policies are guided by the theological framework articulated in the Baptist Faith and Message, 2000.

CHRISTIAN PHILOSOPHY OF EDUCATION

Christian education is based upon God and those absolutes established by Him. God sustains a systematic order from the vastness of space to microscopic creation. In the physical, mental, and spiritual realms, God is the personally interested Heavenly Father.

Origins

God planned and created all things. Life was not an accident. Plants, animals, fish, fowl, and man are all created and sustained in their own order and are not an end to themselves but are all working in God’s plan.

Man

God created man in His image. Man has a never-dying soul and is responsible to God in all matters. Eternal life is available to all men through faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord.

Society

When honored, God’s laws guide man’s relationships and results in justice. Under biblical principles, man has rights of individual decision resulting in personal responsibility.

Education

Education begins with the premise that God is and ever shall be. When one is properly oriented, he discovers that life is a wonderful part of a great plan that involves time and eternity. The school, church, and home should work hand in hand to develop the whole man: body, soul, and spirit.
