Core Values

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.
