STATEMENT OF FAITH

A Statement of Faith outlines the essential beliefs we hold and teach as a Christ-centered school. All Faith Christian Academy faculty, staff, and enrolled families affirm the following core biblical truths:
 

The Bible

We believe the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are the inspired, infallible, and authoritative Word of God, without error in their original writings. The Bible is the final authority for faith, life, and conduct. (2 Tim. 3:16; 2 Pet. 1:21)


God

We believe in one God, eternally existing in three persons - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. (Gen. 1:1; John 10:30, 37-38)


Jesus Christ

We believe in the full deity of Jesus Christ: His virgin birth, sinless life, miracles, substitutionary and atoning death, bodily resurrection, ascension to the right hand of the Father, and His Lordship over all creation. We affirm His personal and imminent return. (John 10:33; Isa. 7:14; Matt. 1:23; Luke 1:35; Heb. 4:15, 7:26; John 2:11; 1 Cor. 15:3-4; Acts 1:11; 1 Thess. 5:1)


The Holy Spirit

We believe the Holy Spirit convicts the world of sin and regenerates, indwells, empowers, and fills all believers, enabling them to live a godly and obedient Christian life. (Rom. 3:19, 23; John 3:16-19, 5:24; Eph. 2:8-10; Titus 3:5-6; Eph. 5:18; 1 Cor. 3:16, 6:19-20)


Creation & Humanity

We believe that God created humanity in His image. Through Adam’s sin, humanity fell and became spiritually dead, making the new birth through Christ essential for salvation. (Gen. 1:26-28, 5:1-2; John 3:16-19; Rom. 3:23, 5:8-9)


Salvation

We believe that salvation is an act of God’s grace, received through personal faith in Jesus Christ alone and His completed work on the cross. Salvation is complete, secure, and eternal. (Eph. 2:8-10; Titus 3:5)


Eternal Destiny

We believe in the bodily resurrection of all people: the saved to eternal life with God and the lost to eternal separation from God. (John 5:28–29)


The Church

We believe in the spiritual unity of all believers as the Body of Christ and in the importance of gathering in local churches for worship, fellowship, discipleship, and service. (Rom. 8:9; 1 Cor. 12:12–13; Gal. 3:26–28)

Our Commitment
 

Faith Christian Academy is dedicated to providing a Christ-centered education that integrates biblical truth into every subject, activity, and relationship. We seek to partner with Christian families in raising students who love God, pursue excellence, demonstrate Christlike character, and serve their communities with humility and purpose.


We commit to creating an environment where God’s Word is honored, the Gospel is central, and every student is encouraged to grow spiritually, academically, and socially to fulfill God’s calling on their lives.

FACULTY & STAFF

Our dedicated team of educators and staff at Faith Christian Academy are committed to providing a nurturing and enriching learning experience for our students. Each member of our team contributes to creating a supportive and inspiring environment where students can grow and flourish.
