Our Philosophy
New Hope Christian Academy is established to train children for their highest potential in our society, for the glory of God – through a consecrated faculty, highest academic standards, uniquely Christian instruction and a genuinely Christian environment.
The philosophy of Christian education begins with the presupposition that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons, God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. God is the source of all truth. The Bible is viewed as the inspired, infallible, and authoritative Word of God and becomes the basis of all beliefs and the integrating foundation upon which Christian education is established.
Christian education, then, must view all of life through a Biblical Perspective. Because Jesus Christ is “the way, the truth, and the life,” all Christian education centers in Jesus Christ. Through Him, man finds truth as related to every subject area. “There is none other name, under heaven, given among men, whereby we must be saved,” and therefore, “Jesus Christ is come that man might have life more abundantly”.
As a result, man can find truth through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the source of all knowledge and wisdom (Col. 2:3). He is the Creator, Designer, and Sustainer of all things (Col. 1:16-17). This truth cannot be separated from the academics.
