Educating Kids to LIVE for Him with Love, Integrity, Virtue, and Excellence!
Love
God showed how much He loved us by sending His one and only Son into the world so that we might have eternal life through Him. This is real love—not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son as a sacrifice to take away our sins. Dear friends, since God loved us that much, we surely ought to love each other. ~ 1 John 4:9-11
Integrity
Students are learning to have integrity in all areas of their life. As long as I live, while I have breath from God, my lips will speak no evil, and my tongue will speak no lies. I will never concede that you are right; I will defend my integrity until I die. I will maintain my innocence without wavering. My conscience is clear as long as I shall so live. ~ Job 27:3-6
Virtue
Students are learning the virtues of:
· Forgiveness
· Peace
· Thankfulness
Make allowance for each other’s faults, and forgive anyone who offends you. Remember, the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others. Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds us all together in perfect harmony. And let the peace that comes from Christ rule in your hearts. For as members of one body you are called to live in peace. And always be thankful. ~ Col 3:13-15
Excellence
Bringing best selves to everything they do in life.
· Spiritual
· Mental
· Physical
· Social
So eat your meals heartily, not worrying about what others say about you—you’re eating to God’s glory, after all, not to please them. As a matter of fact, do everything that way, heartily and freely to God’s glory. At the same time, don’t be callous in your exercise of freedom, thoughtlessly stepping on the toes of those who aren’t as free as you are. I try my best to be considerate of everyone’s feelings in all these matters; I hope you will be, too. ~ 1 Corinthians 10:31—11:1
