ABOUT US
Who We Are
We are several area churches that have agreed to found a new private school called Community Christian School. We are starting small and hope to see much growth in the coming years. We strive to equip our youth with a Biblical worldview in a changing world.
We hope to have the privilege of teaching students from Overbrook, the surrounding areas and beyond.
​
Our Mission Statement
The mission of Community Christian School is:
1. To educate and build a foundation of biblical truth and unity so students may stand firm in one spirit, with one mind striving side by side for the faith of the gospel.
2. To train in truth and righteousness and fully develop each child in body, mind, and spirit.
3. To equip students to be lifelong learners and to be servants of Jesus Christ.
4. To provide a Biblical education to foster the growth of the next generation of Christ-followers.
5. To build up the next generation academically and spiritually in Biblical truths.
Our Philosophy
We believe in the centrality and authority of Jesus Christ, who is the Way, the Truth, and the Life.
We believe that the Bible is the authority for all issues of life, including education.
We believe that the knowledge of Jesus Christ and the Bible is essential to the proper growth and development of each individual student.
OUR STATEMENT OF FAITH
1. We believe the Bible to be the inspired, infallible, authoritative Word of God. (II Timothy 3:16; II Peter 1:21, II Timothy 1:13, Psalm 119:10; 160; 12:6, Proverbs 30:5)
2. We believe there is one God, eternally existent in the three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. (Genesis 1:1; John 10:30, 37, 38; Matthew 3:16,17, 28:19)
3. We believe in the deity and humanity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, inHis sinless life, in His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His visible return in power and glory. (Isaiah 7:14; Matthew 1:23; Hebrews 4:15, 7:25, 9:12; John 2:11, 11:25; Colossians 1:14; Acts 1:11; Revelation 19:11,16)
4. We believe that all humanity is lost and sinful, and that salvation is received by the grace of God through personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and by the act of regeneration of life by the Holy Spirit. (Romans 3:19, 23; John 3:16, 19; Ephesians 2:8, 9; Genesis 3:5, 6; John 4:24)
5. 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)
6. We believe that support and participation in the task of fulfilling the great commission is the responsibility of all believers in our Lord Jesus Christ. (Matthew 28:19-20)
7. We believe that God wonderfully and immutably creates each person as male or female. These two distinct, complementary genders together reflect the image and nature of God. (Gen. 1:26-27.) Rejection of one’s biological sex is a rejection of the image of God within that person.
8. We believe that the term marriage has only one meaning: a covenant relationship between one man, one woman, and God Himself, as defined in Scripture. (Gen 2:18-25.)
*Our Statement of Faith is not exhaustive of all of our beliefs. The Bible, as the inspired and infallible Word of God, speaks with absolute authority regarding the proper conduct of mankind and is the unchanging foundation for all belief and behavior.
OUR VISION STATEMENT
Prepare students spiritually, academically, and in accordance with their God-given potential, equipping them with a Biblical worldview that will enable them to stand firm in their faith and be the leaders of tomorrow.
