VALUES:

PHILOSOPHY OF CHRISTIAN EDUCATION
Reality
God is the personal and purposeful Creator and represents the guiding force of the universe. Reality in life involves understanding that God is real and is active in the lives of men and women today.

Truth
All truth is God’s truth. Truth is consistent throughout the universe. Truth exists and is an absolute. God has revealed Himself through His Scriptures, through nature, and through His Son. Man’s understanding of truth comes through a study of the inspired Word of God, an understanding of His creation, and having a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

Knowledge
All knowledge must be put in the context of biblical truth. Any knowledge or personal conviction that serves as a guiding principle in an individual’s life must be measured against the standard of truth as revealed in God’s inspired Word.

Man
Man is created in the spiritual and moral image or likeness of God. Man’s essential nature is his freedom to choose or decide for himself what his behavior will be, and what he will think, become, and do. Man’s essential freedom of choice is affected by his inherent nature and his environment of both good and evil. Therefore, he is in need of special help to choose good and to find fulfillment in a reconciled life made possible by Jesus, the divine Son of God.

Christian Education
In order for an educational program to be academically sound and instructionally effective, it must be founded upon Christian educational principles that recognize the true nature of God, truth, knowledge, and man. Implicit in Christian education are these basic truths:

  • Man possesses’ a spiritual dimension (Genesis 1:26-27).
  • Education involves the total being spiritually, intellectually, physically, and socially (Proverbs 9:9).
  • Each person possesses unique and individual potential, traits, and needs (Roman 12:3-8).
  • The educational experience must involve (as a primary emphasis) the development of
    Christian beliefs, attitudes, and skills toward zealous application.
  • An integration of Bible truth will be an inseparable and primary part of the total educational process. Christian concepts will be unified with inseparable from, and central to the academic offerings.
  • Youth need a steady influence while preparing to live in a complex society. Only the bible has the answers to man’s needs and longings, and therefore it will serve as the final authority for determining our guiding principles on all questions.
