Success is more than having a career. Ultimately we are releasing world changers for Christ!

She meant that the Christian school goes beyond acquiring knowledge and understanding, that students are able to get the direction of a fulfilling future in terms of career because we should be able to direct them where God is calling them.

Secular educators can make children competent cognitively. It has to be more than that. We are raising a generation that will pass on God’s Word and a faith that is commanded to be handed down.

As Christian educators, our focus is not just on academics but on our students’ spiritual lives. It’s our responsibility to keep them in the Word and show them how to live a Christian life in a world that is often not receptive to it. We need to make sure that they know how to put on the Armor of God anytime, anywhere, and in any circumstance.

Helping kids reach their full academic potential is important, but at the end of the day, we need to be raising kids who are dedicated to Christ above all else and are able to live their faith with authenticity and confidence.
