Our Core Values

Mankato Christian Academy's vision for our graduates is to develop students who:

  • Are committed disciples of Jesus Christ and whose knowledge and wisdom are grounded in Scriptural TRUTH

  • Possess CHARACTER that reflects the love of Jesus Christ

  • Function as the body of Christ in SERVICE to God and in outreach to others

  • Discover and strengthen their talents to GLORIFY God through generous living

  • Are Christ-centered LEADERS in their families, churches and communities by thinking clearly and living biblically

Truth and Wisdom

"The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding." - Proverbs9:10

​

Mankato Christian Academy confesses that God reveals absolute Truth in Scripture, nature, and in Jesus Christ. We reject the view that truth is relative, unattainable, or non-existent. Yet because we are born sinful and “see in a mirror dimly,” MCA encourages faculty and students alike to approach their vocations with a spirit of intellectual humility, reverence, wonder, and awe. Our goal is to see all members of the MCA community spend a lifetime learning about the whole counsel of God and the majestic world He has created. 

Character and Faith

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control - Galatians 5:22-23

 

Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, and the conviction of things not seen - Hebrews 11:1 

​

Christian education places a priority on the cultivation of virtue. Mankato Christian Academy stands in the tradition of prudence, temperance, fortitude, and justice. These cardinal virtues are central to human flourishing and are properly directed in love for God and for service to his church. In our sanctified lives Christians strive ever to become more like Christ, knowing full well that the God who justified us freely by His grace also made us for Himself. We joyfully apply the Word of God to all areas of life, and seek out every opportunity for Godly living, faithful worship, and humble prayer. 

Service and Leadership

"Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves." - Philippians 2:3  

​

Christians lead lives of service and generosity. Mankato Christian Academy fosters a culture of grace and truth that promotes humility and confidence, holding each other accountable in love. We value people in the way God has made them and celebrate diversity as an expression of His image. As we partner with families in the educational process, we strive to protect the spiritual, emotional, and physical wellbeing of students and others. In so doing, we seek to make disciples who are confident in their redemption and humble in their dedicated service to others. To this end, MCA develops skills of friendly collaboration, clear communication, discerning judgment, and creative problem solving to address today’s pressing needs. 

OUR MISSION

​

Mankato Christian Academy is a Christian High School committed to helping students grow in their knowledge of their Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, and to develop a Biblical Worldview preparing them to live out their faith as future servant leaders in their home, career, community, and world. 

 

Mankato Christian Academy's constant purpose and objective will be to develop committed disciples of Jesus Christ. As the Gospel of Matthew states, we are to go, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. (Matthew 28:19) 

 

Mankato Christian Academy exists to partner with families to develop future Christian leaders as disciples. As servant leaders, our students will use the Bible as a critical source for truth, and as a moral compass for discerning and decision-making. 

 

In love, we aim to provide a firm foundation on God’s Word for our students to understand and address the many difficult issues experienced by this life lived in a fallen, sinful world. The decisions they will face both now, and in their future will be informed through the knowledge of God’s love, grace, salvation, and guidance.
