Faith In The Classroom: How Our Beliefs Shape Our Lessons
One of the most important things to look for in a Christian school is its commitment to integrating Scripture across all subject areas. This means studying the Bible is not limited to a specific block of time — students are exposed to God’s word as it relates to the subject matter they are learning. The benefits of this teaching model are seen year after year at NCA. If you’re considering how a Christian education can best prepare your child, consider these advantages of integrating faith and learning.
Developing the Whole Child
When the heart and intellect can function synergistically, students are better prepared for success in future education and all areas of life. They understand that God’s truth helps make sense of the world around them, developing an authentic Biblical worldview.
Inspiring Critical Thinking Skills
Bringing Scripture into the classroom gives teachers the opportunity to ask thought-provoking questions. This inspires students to think critically and for themselves. After learning this way over the course of several years, a child is equipped to critique various ideologies from a Christian perspective.
Sowing Seeds of Truth
Theology is difficult to separate from complex subjects such as science. Students who experience a consistent, reinforced framework of truth grow impassioned by the ability to answer life’s biggest questions through Scripture. Not only do they value truth, they apply it as scholars and future leaders.
Deepening Walks with Christ
As students are exposed to Jesus’ teachings daily, they get a clearer picture of who He is and what He desires for their lives. The spiritual journey is never isolated from the school experience, encouraging students to pursue excellence for the right reasons, as well as a future in alignment with God’s calling.
