Academic

Impact Statement

At TBCA, we strive to prepare students to further not only their educational journey but their spiritual journey as well. The first step in building that foundation is an acknowledgment of the ultimate biblical authority in one’s life. As students increase their knowledge of academic content, they learn to integrate that knowledge with a Christian worldview to successfully develop solutions.

 

Rationale

Students develop biblical discernment in academics with the desire to impact the world for Christ.

 

Objectives

1. Students will reflect Biblical authority and integrity in academic content (Colossians 2:2-3)

2. Students will possess confidence in learned academic ability (Philippians 4:13)

3. Students will integrate academics with life experiences while developing spiritual maturity (1 Corinthians 10:31)

4. Students will participate in a continuous development of a concrete foundation for future academia (Proverbs 4:7, Ecclesiastes7:12)

 

Outcome

A TBCA graduate will be able to think critically, to take ownership of his own learning, to attack issues from a variety of disciplines, and to view all of life and learning from the truth of Scripture. He/she will be equipped to move on to the next step in God’s plan for his/her life, whatever or wherever that may be.

 

Balance

Impact Statement

At TBCA we will provide varying opportunities. Students will be able to advance their talents through academics and the venues of drama, music, public speaking, art, journalism, athletics, and various clubs. Through these varying programs, students will recognize their talents and employ them for the cause of Christ. (I Corinthians 14:40)

He/she will recognize that God’s plan includes a globally-oriented mindset and compassion for others who are both like him/her and different from him/her. He/she will show a deep and abiding respect for others and have a sense of urgency about caring for others in service to Christ.

 

 

Community & Servant Leaders
