Our philosophy

 Flows from our mission: Serving local churches by shaping faithful men for the gospel ministry through the Word of God.

At Calvary, you’ll acquire the tools, knowledge and experience you need to fulfill your calling in the pastorate, on the mission field, or in a Christian school. Upon graduation, you’ll be equipped for effective, God-honoring ministry.

Here’s what a Calvary education is all about.

Primacy of the New Testament local church. We believe that the local church is God’s ordained instrument of witness and work in this age, we live that philosophy out every day – fully involving our students in the life of the church.

Baptist position. For forty years, Calvary has remained faithful to the historic fundamentals of the Christian faith. Every member of our faculty affirms:

• The authoritative, inerrant Word of God.
• The sovereignty of God in salvation
• The cessation of revelatory gifts for the present age
• The cause of evangelism and missions
• Young-earth creationism

• Become more like Christ by reading and memorizing His Word.
• Passionately preach the Word and evangelize the lost.
• Minister every week in a local church.

In sum, our philosophy of education will help you pursue God’s unique calling on your life and ministry.
