Our Statement of Faith

We believe that there is one true God, the creator of the universe.
We believe the Bible to be the inspired, infallible, authoritative Word of God.
We believe that all of mankind is fallen and sinful.
We believe that God sent his only begotten son, Jesus of Nazerath, to this world to provide a way of salvation for all those who will accept him.
We believe that it is only through faith in Jesus Christ that one can be reconciled with God and experience eternal life.
We believe the Lordship of Jesus Christ in our daily lives through prayer and submission is the way of sanctification to which we have been called.
Neither students nor parents will be required to agree with all of these statements for acceptance into Bright Star Christian School, however it should be noted that the principles that govern every aspect of Bright Star Christian School are directly derived from these core beliefs.
