A Letter from the president
Dear Fellow Believers and Patriots,
Everyone has a moment when a choice has to be made. One of our Founding Fathers, Patrick Henry, declared to the Second Virginia Convention, “Give me liberty or give me death!” Esther told her uncle Mordecai, “If I perish, I perish!” Both very dramatic quotes offered during a tumultuous time in each of their individual historical eras. Both were confronted with a decision, and both responded with passionate hearts for their causes.
Education in America, founded by God-fearing pilgrims, is still the backbone of the American educational system – in Christian colleges. While many colleges and universities employ Christian staff and faculty, many of these institutions are failing in the areas of character and integrity. America grew into the most powerful nation on Earth under the leadership of men and women trained by Christians who kept Jesus Christ as the priority and at the forefront of the educational program. Unfortunately, many of our heretofore-honored institutions of higher learning have become bereft of maintaining the Christian values and beliefs upon which America was founded, and they have begun to teach values that are definitely not in the best interests of our citizens or our nation.
Once, when talking with a potential donor in the early years of our building Kingdom College, I was asked, “Do you think you can really find real Christian professors?” My response was, “Absolutely!” God provided completely – our faculty is a family of Believers in the Body of Christ -completely sold out To God! Our courses and classes are based and founded on God’s Word in every area we instruct.
It is time for Christian institutions of higher education to take their place in the hallowed halls of American education once again. This letter may be long overdue, but it is our prayer that everyone who reads this and agrees with the message of this letter will pray that Kingdom College will grow and flourish in our area. We have the opportunity to turn the tide on the current trend of institutions of higher education. In brief, our mission is to train and equip future leaders in the fields of Biblical Studies, Psychology, and Counseling; our vision is to have our graduates go out into the fields and apply their skills following the model of Jesus Christ. We want to join those institutions that are fighting hard to maintain their allegiance to Christ in a world where Christian education has been considered second-rate – at best and not worthy of consideration in the least. Kingdom College stands with our brothers and sisters in other Christian colleges that have kept God in their institutions. Please remember that it is through these institutions that we can be a part of re-building the America that God intended for us. We need your prayers.
Thank you for taking the time to read and pray.
