Why Do We Exist?

May I remind you why Christian education is the best choice?

Because man’s chief purpose is to glorify God and enjoy Him forever, Immanuel Christian School believes that education exists for the task of revealing God’s character through the Scriptures and in every facet of His creation.

As a result, students will have their hearts instruct- ed and their minds expanded as they study history, literature, mathematics, science, and all other academic disciplines with that purpose in mind. As students study, they will gain insight into how God has worked in the world in the past, and therefore, how He is working today - even when it looks as though no one is in control. They will learn His principles of ordering the world. Not only will they understand how gravity works, but what makes it important to our everyday lives. They will understand the ways word order matters in English versus other languages where the case endings in nouns, verbs and adjectives indicate meaning. They will learn the tools of writing clear sentences, expressing thoughts in concise ways. Ultimately, our desire for them is to marvel at what wondrous ways God has made the world to work!

Christian education is expensive in terms of money. Lack of a Christian education is more expensive in terms of having children not understand these truths.
