Statement Of Faith
Giving our children a Christian worldview is seen as a priority. All true wisdom and knowledge comes from God. Therefore, all subjects are taught from the viewpoint that God created this knowledge. In addition, a prayer and devotion time prior to classes is a part of the daily schedule.
CCA is above all a Christian program seeking to support families in their spiritual growth.
- We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative, inerrant Word of God (II Timothy 3:15; II Peter 1:21).
- We believe there is one God, eternally existent in three persons – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Genesis 1:1; Matthew 23:19; John 10:30).
- We believe in the deity of Christ (John 10:33):
- His virgin birth (Isaiah 7:14; Matthew 1:23; Luke 1:35)
- His sinless life (Hebrews 4:15; Hebrews 7:26)
- His miracles (John 2:ll)
- His vicarious and atoning death (1 Corinthians 15:3; Ephesians 1:7; Hebrews 2:9)
- His resurrection (John 11:25; 1 Corinthians 15:4)
- His ascension to the right hand of the Father (Mark 16:19)
- His personal return in power and glory (Acts 1:11; Revelation 19:11)
We believe in the absolute necessity of regeneration by the Holy Spirit for salvation because of the exceeding sinfulness of human nature; and that men are justified on the single ground of faith in the shed blood of Christ and that only by God’s grace and through faith alone are we saved and are kept by the power of God unto eternal salvation (John 3:16-19; John 5:24; Romans 3:23; Romans 5:8-9; Ephesians 2:8-10; Titus 3:5).
We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved unto the resurrection of life, and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation (John 5:28-29).
We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ (Romans 8:9; I Corinthians 12:12-13; Galatians 3:26-28).
We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life (Romans 8:13-14; 1 Corinthians 3:16; 1 Corinthians 6:19-20; Ephesians 4:30; Ephesians 5:18).
We believe that teaching and learning should be accomplished through the cooperative effort of parents and teachers, for the Bible places primary responsibility for the total education of the child on the parents. (Proverbs 22:6, Deuteronomy 6:4-9)
Though CCA represents a number of denominations, we stress that each family entering the school must agree to support the basic doctrines found within the statement of faith above. All spiritual and academic instruction, and issues of conduct and relationships, is approached from this Christian worldview. Individual families and churches should address specific denominational issues beyond these tenants.
Prayer
CCA was born and is maintained by the prayers of the families. Your continued prayer support is vital to the success of our school. Please include CCA on your regular prayer list and pray with your children about their school:
- Pray for the CCA Administrator and Board as they continue to guide the policymaking and general direction of the school.
- Pray for your children’s teachers and each member of the staff in their own personal walk with the Lord and in the fulfilling of the school’s mission.
- Pray for the salvation and spiritual growth of each child at CCA.
- Pray for all the families within the school as we seek to train our children together.
- Pray for direction in the special co-teaching relationship you have with your children’s teachers.
- Pray for each function and program of the school as it is planned and implemented that nothing be done outside of God’s will and guidance.
- Pray that your children’s school days, both at CCA and at home, will be directed by the Lord and honoring to Him.
- Pray that your own service to the school: rotation duties, committees, class participation, and others, will be done ultimately as a service to the Lord.
- Pray for the continued financial provision for each family and for the school to provide for each of our needs.
Though the power of prayer is often overlooked, it is vital for the operation of our school. We have seen repeated evidence of God’s hand in answering prayers since the beginning of CCA. We ask that you approach each day, task, and challenge with prayer
Devotions
We design each new school day to be pleasing to the Lord. We set aside special time for dedicating ourselves and our classes to Him. The purpose of devotions is simply to devote ourselves to Christ.
Chapel
The purpose of CCA Chapel is to provide a meaningful time of worship and inspiration to our students, staff, and families. Students will be encouraged to participate and to take a role in the music or scripture reading. Parents and family members are encouraged to attend.
