STATEMENT OF FAITH

At LCA, we believe:

We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative word of God.

We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory.

We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful man regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential.

We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life.

We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved unto the resurrection of life and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.

We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.

This statement of faith was adopted from the National Association of Evangelicals.

We exist to educate young men and women in the arts and sciences in the context of a complete commitment to the gospel of Jesus Christ.

SCHOOL LIFE

LCA is where creativity, kindness, and academic strength come together. Within our walls, students learn respect for themselves and one another, and create meaningful friendships that will carry well beyond their years here.

We celebrate diversity, accomplishments big and small, and all of the pieces that make a whole person. We thrive on the things that make us unique.

At LCA, our students discover WHO they are and HOW the learn.
