Philosophy of Christian Education
God holds parents responsible for the education of their children. Believing God has directed Temple Baptist Church in this ministry, dedicated faculty and staff serve parents in helping them fulfill their responsibility in child training. When the home, church, and school work together, Christian character can be developed.
Because "All things were created by Him, and for Him; and He is before all things, and by Him all things consist..." (Colossians 1:16b, 17), every area of life must be Christ-centered. Each student must understand God's wisdom, power, judgment, and love as he views history, science, math, English, music, art, character development, and life goals. Therefore, the student truly is enabled to have knowledge with wisdom, and to understand God's design and plan for him. Christian education is that which is based on the truth of God's Word because in Christ "...are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge" (Colossians 2:3).
