At GCCA, Literature classes are devoted to the study of primary sources. While there may not be a clearly-defined, signed and sealed “western canon,” we still recognize the existence of an ongoing, more-or-less continuous literary tradition that stems from Christian commitment. This tradition often harkens back, with carefully-cultivated allusion, to many ancient or classical sources that reflect God’s truth in various ways even though they were written by non-Christians (as Dante refers to Virgil, or as Milton to Homer). Real openness to God’s truth wherever it may be found, gives us freedom to read appreciatively and discerningly from a wide array of sources outside the Bible — and not just the “western” ones, either!

…I am thankful for discipline here at Grace. The discipline that corrects sin & folly, as well as the constructive teaching and training. I am grateful for the order that allows the teaching we do to grow in fertile soil. I thank God that Grace is a place where discipline happens, because it means that it is a place that discipleship can happen

What a blessing and privilege it is for me to have the opportunity to teach at a school like GCCA, where the desire of the administration, teachers, parents, and students is to bring glory to God in ALL things, whether that be our favorite subject, or those that seem a little less meaningful in our own minds. May we strive to be like Isaac Newton (the Father of Calculus), seeing our own work, whatever that work may be, as a way of investigating God’s own handiwork…

Christian worship should relate to Scripture; this includes family worship…We should be teaching and admonishing through song, but what does this look like practically?

In a proper education our whole person is being transformed…One proper response to a proper education is being a doer of the Word, not just a hearer…Another proper response is having hearts of gratitude. We need to be thankful to God first and foremost; for blessing us with this opportunity, that is so rare in today’s society, for giving us parents that are fulfilling their God-given roles to guide, lead, and train their children, the next generation of immortal souls, to love and serve the LORD (Proverbs 22:6).

Our students are learning that God may call them into politics or may call them to stand before kings, or He may call them to risk their lives by tending the sick, or He may call them to military service to defend His people. Whatever they do in life, they know it will fail if they do not serve in the name of the Lord; and they cannot serve in the name of the Lord if they are not in His word listening for His leading and learning His ways.
Our society tells us that children are a burden…The Bible tells us, though, that children are THE most important work.

Education - true education - that prepares our hearts and minds to love Christ demands humility. To glimpse a city, “whose designer and builder is God” (Heb 11:10) will indeed spark genuine wonder and all boasting will rest solely on Him.

During our time at GCCA, we as a family and me as a teacher have learned the great value of music, the Psalms especially. We see that God created music and wants us to use it to glorify Him.

Excellent teachers of the art of rhetoric would require that, before one may argue against an opponent’s viewpoint, one must state that viewpoint in terms which one's opponent agrees accurately portray it. It’s said that the best debaters are capable of arguing the opposite side’s views better than the opposite side itself. The art of rhetoric - the winsome expression of all the knowledge and know-how gathered up in the years before - being the crowning stage of a classical and Christian education, those of us in this movement should have a better handle on this than most.
