Mission & Beliefs

Mission:  

The mission of Discovery Homeschool Academy (DHA) is to provide a high quality education with college degreed teachers; to lay a strong spiritual foundation from which students will grow and mature in the image of Jesus Christ; to provide weekly opportunities to interact and develop friendships among peer groups in a Christian atmosphere; and to pray for, support, and partner with families in the homeschool community.

Statement of Faith: 

Discovery Homeschool Academy (DHA) believes these truths as fundamental beliefs of the Christian faith.  All persons employed by DHA should abide by and agree to our Statement of Faith and conduct themselves accordingly. While we understand that we have families from different backgrounds and with different beliefs, it is important for our families to understand the basic Biblical beliefs and principles that our school is based upon.  Our goal is to support and build upon the spiritual training students are receiving at home and at church.

• Holy Scripture: We believe the Bible to be the divinely inspired Word of God (2 Timothy 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:20-21)

• The Godhead: We believe in one God, creator of all things (Genesis 1:1–2:3; Exodus 20:11), eternally existent in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. (Matthew 3:15–17; Matthew 28:10; John 1:1–3)

• The Person and Work of Jesus Christ: We believe in the deity of the Lord Jesus Christ (John 1: 1-3); that He shed His own blood as atonement for man’s sins (Romans 3:23-25), rose bodily from the dead (Romans 4:25; 1 Corinthians 15:4), and ascended to the Father’s right hand (Mark 16:19, Romans 8:32-34).

• The Holy Spirit: We believe the Holy Spirit convicts of sin (John 16:7-8) and indwells believers, making a Godly life possible (Galatians 5:22-25)

• Salvation: We believe in justification through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ (Acts 16:31; Romans 5:9; 1 Corinthians 15:1-4; Ephesians 2:3-10)

Position on Marriage & Sexuality: We believe the Bible defines marriage as an exclusive union between one man and one woman (Matthew 19:4-6). Any form of sexual immorality is sinful and offensive to God (Hebrews 13:4). God created mankind in his image as male and female (Genesis 1:26-28; Genesis 2:18-25). Believers in Jesus Christ must refrain from any attempts to physically change or disagree with their biological sex (Romans 1:26-32).
