Ah... if it were only as simple as pushing a button.
Instantaneous Godly character. But of course it isn't.

So how exactly do you go about developing Godly character in a child?

Of all the enduring qualities that grow in childhood and adolescence, character is the most important. At Nashua Christian Academy we consider character development to be one of our most sacred trusts. Our commitment as a discipleship model school is to partner closely with Christian families and their local churches to this end. Our goal within the NCA family is to foster meaningful relationships among the students, their families, and the staff, drawing us all nearer to God. Communication, praise, discipline, mentoring–all these are done in the light of Christ’s example.

We choose to educate our children in the light of God’s truth for the same reason we choose to live our lives there. Learning and living successfully require God’s wisdom, strength and guidance. In school, especially, our children are handicapped in their learning if the teacher cannot present or perhaps doesn’t even know and understand truth! When our children leave school to enter the world of work, we want them armed with the truth of a Christian worldview. We want them to know the real facts of science and history, to discern the philosophies of literature and art.

Knowledge is just the beginning though. Heart, character, attitude – these are the qualities that make a difference in a person’s life. A heart for God finds purpose in what it learns, and applies that knowledge with understanding to impact the world. Godly character testifies to God’s grace and love. An attitude of humility expresses the bearer’s value for others.

Developing Godly character? That is, simply, the work of the Spirit. And God’s Spirit is found in his Presence. That is where we study, work and play at Nashua Christian Academy.
