SPIRITUAL EMPHASIS

Chapel

Tri-City Christian School has well-planned chapel programs that are biblically sound, morally and spiritually edifying, and inspirational. In addition, special chapel programs are planned to coincide with special speakers or missionaries who are in the area when possible.

Bible Study

Bible study is a requirement for every student in Tri-City Christian School. The Bible is God's Word to man and contains the plan of salvation for each individual. Students are taught to seek, find, and submit to God's will for their lives.

Prayer

Prayer is talking to God, praising Him, thanking Him, and petitioning Him. It is always appropriate, and classes are encouraged to engage in prayer on a daily basis. As students mature, they are encouraged to pray and to lead others in prayer. Classes begin each morning with prayer.

The Role of the Christian School

According to the Bible, God has established two institutions through which He intends education and training to be dispersed: the home and the church. In the Old Testament, God told the national of Israel that parents were charged with the responsibility of training their children. Then in the New Testament, the Apostle Paul, in discussing God's order for the home, reminded parents of their duty to raise their children in the "nurture and admonition of the Lord." (Ephesians 6:4)

The Church, too, has an educational responsibility to fulfill, according to the challenge of the Great Commission. (Matthew 28:19-20) Where does the school come into the picture? The Christian Day School should operate as an arm of the local church, working in harmony with what is being taught in the Christian home. The home, the church, and the school should be in agreement and supportive of each other.
