BUILDING FOR TODAY. . .
INVESTING FOR TOMORROW
Few would argue that our society is not just in a downward spiral, it has fallen off the cliff. From lawlessness to gender dysphoria, to a society where feelings trump science or common sense, and truth is whatever one wants to make of it.
As early as 9 years old and certainly by the age of 13, basic assumptions about life, about what is right and wrong, the origins of life, and one’s identity are firmly established. Long before a young person sets foot on a college campus, or leaves home to join the work force, one’s worldview is fully formed and set. The world knows this, which is why it is are targeting children, sowing seeds of doubt and confusion while they are still vulnerable and very impressionable.
For the past 57 years, Timberlake Christian School has played a key role in assisting parents in shaping young lives with a biblical worldview. Our mission has always been to educate with a biblical worldview with a purpose towards Christlikeness. This task has only become more critical as we fight the confusion and darkness of today’s society with the clarity and the light of God’s Word.
While we are not called, or able, to answer every need, there is more we can and should do. In the past few years, we have had to turn away hundreds of students for lack of space. Not only that, but our elementary classes are completely full. This organic growth is pushing us to expand our middle school. We have a two-fold need to accommodate our current student body and construct space to welcome new students. Driven by these needs, we have decided to step out on faith and expand our facilities. Building today is not just about new facilities, it is about pouring into and investing in the next generation so they would have the biblical foundation needed to face the world.
