Spiritual Gifts — The gifts and ministries of the Holy Spirit remain important to the Christian life and ministry.
Christian Character — Christian education must develop both knowledge and character — integrity, humility, holiness, compassion, accountability, service, and love.
The Great Commission — Every believer shares responsibility for fulfilling Christ’s command to make disciples of all nations.
