At Evan's school, our Mission and Vision team recently wrapped up what we see as God's vision for the future of the school. While this is yet to have board approval, I am giving you a preview peek ... let me know if you have any thoughts.

One thing we really wrestled with was whether to use the term "culturally-relevant". Many board members were concerned that folks wouldn't know what it means so we decided to not use it. I said that I felt it has meaning to anyone under 25 ... but I am not sure about that. What do you think?


Our Mission Is To Equip And Inspire Students To Be A New Generation of Christ-Centered Leaders.

Our Vision is that students will embrace:

Academic Excellence
Students will have a Biblical worldview with superior preparation in all academic disciplines. (Proverbs 22:6).

Building Personal Character
Students will develop to be above reproach (I Timothy 3:1-5) in all areas of their lives, learning and modeling integrity, self discipline and the Fruits of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22).

Calling of Christ
Students will discover their talents and Spiritual Gifts (Romans 12:6-8) as they seek and follow God’s call on their lives within the body of Christ.

Developing Hearts of Service and Gratitude
With compassion and the heart of Christ, students will serve those around them throughout their lives. (Matthew 20:26-28).

Engaging
As Christ’s new generation of disciples, students will engage their world to fulfill the Great Commission. “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.” (Matthew 28:19)
