Christian Leadership

The Christian Leadership component of Pisgah’s curriculum combines a biblical worldview with college preparatory academics, a unique opportunity that meets the primary objective to inspire the next generation of great Christian thinkers. Students discover God’s ultimate truth, their unique gifts, and their purpose in life. Paul wrote that in Christ are hidden the keys to wisdom and knowledge, therefore, being Christ-focused is one of Pisgah’s five core values. It means that we:

  • Maintain weekly Chapel as a top priority in our programming at all age and grade levels, with increasing levels of student involvement and leadership.
  • Intentionally encourage individual and corporate prayer daily.
  • Celebrate together the joy of a God-filled life for children and adults.
  • Strengthen the school’s Living Curriculum, our faculty, by providing training and experiences that affirm and deepen their faith
  • Being Christ focused is formally woven into our curriculum and informally practiced throughout the school day.
  • Mission Trip and Service opportunities are made available to students and faculty.

Preschool introduces students to God’s love. In Lower School, students focus on Character Development through the study of life and people living in biblical times. In Middle School, students study the Old and New Testaments. Lessons of faith and character are revealed as students begin to apply biblical truths in their own journeys of discovery. Upper School students take this growth one step further by contrasting the Christian faith to other major religion and cults and continuing to live and present the message of Jesus Christ while living in a secular society. Spiritual Life knowledge is put into practice daily through classroom devotions and prayers. Pisgah Faculty meets weekly for prayer and devotion, and the entire faculty reads a faith based book each summer. Time for spiritual reflection and prayer is an important part of the annual SharpTop Retreat for middle and upper school students.
