Bible

Outreach-DC-008We begin each day with Bible. The primary focus in teaching Bible to our students is encouraging students to follow the examples of the people in their lives that are following the life of Christ. This begins with their parents, teachers, fellow students, friends and others in their church.

We teach Bible class from a discipleship perspective. Jesus said, “Follow me.” Jesus commissioned us to, “Go into all the world and make disciples.” And Paul said, “Imitate me.” This is our approach to teaching Bible.

Pastor Rob Scribner is responsible for Bible class but other pastors, leaders in the churches, parents and visiting evangelists teach this class as well. We use the entire Bible but focus on the issues that pertain to high school students in particular. This leads us to focus on character development in the areas of relationships, work, learning, manners, athletics and dealing with the temptations of the world.

In addition to class attendance, we expect students and parents to attend revival services throughout the year at the Lighthouse Church in Santa Monica. This has been a time of great change for the students. Currently, the Lighthouse Church in Santa Monica has pastors in Africa, Central America and Europe that come and speak to the students on a regular basis. Furthermore, students have the option to travel with our medical team to West Africa and participate in serving with doctors and nurses. Many Lighthouse Christian Academy graduates are currently working in the medical field as a result of being inspired by these high school experiences. Some of the graduated students from the Lighthouse Christian Academy in Santa Monica are doctors, nurses and currently attend universities studying to do the same.

We are a Christian oriented school. The book of basic instruction is the Bible and we use it daily. We encourage you to listen to our 2009 graduates and their testimonies on graduation day that underscore the influence that Bible Class has had during their years at the Lighthouse Christian Academy.

We believe it is our responsibility to act as a parent to the children in our care. We want them to experience the wonder, joy and need for obedience to our great God. This is one of the most rewarding experiences one can experience in life. We encourage every parent to join us as time permits, and start your day with the Bible.
