We are a Presence-driven + Word-based school.
Spiritual leaders are both presence-driven and grounded in the word of God. We are committed to leading in both spirit and truth. We consistently ask God for His mind and His heart for His school.
Exodus 33:13-18, Psalm 105:4, 1 Samuel 2:35
We develop consecrated reformers.
We embrace developing set-apart, marked, and radical spiritual leaders who are bold and fearless in making the crooked way straight in every sphere of influence: family, religion, education, government, media, arts and entertainment, and business.
John 1:23, Isaiah 45:13
We love Israel.
We celebrate and embrace the Jewish culture, the God of Israel. We love what God loves, and recognize Israel as our spiritual family and the foundational inheritance of our faith.
Romans 1:16, Psalm 122:6
We lead through service.
We believe Jesus is the greatest example of a spiritual leader. He declared that He came to serve and not be served. We desire to have a heart posture like His, of humility and service. We know that true authority is not found in those who lord it over people, but those who are willing to wash the feet of people. We serve in His house and in our community.
Mark 10:42-45, John 13:3-5
