I promise that I didn’t do it on purpose. I was not snooping around, but one early December day many years ago, in a moment of mindless meddling around the house, I found it. My big Christmas gift that my parents tried to keep hidden until Christmas morning: a full-sized Voltron action figure, the envy of any elementary aged boy in the 1980s. However, as much as I pleaded and begged, they would not let me play with it until Christmas morning. Continue reading On Waiting and Advent at ACSI B...| ACSI Blog
I will never forget the sight and experience of my husband leading our church in worship the week after we lost our baby. With hands lifted high in praise and open in surrender, he proclaimed the faithfulness and goodness of God to every soul listening and invited them to do the same.

Undeniably, schools emphasize academic success, measured by students’ achievement, test scores, graduation, or college going. While these outcomes are essential, Christian education is called for a purpose beyond that.

Undeniably, Christian education has a distinctive purpose: not only is it called to...| ACSI Blog
How often, if we’re honest, have we re-gifted something given to us? The truth is that many of us have done it at some point. But what motivation lies beneath this act?

Much has changed since Converge 2022, when over 900 Christian school leaders gathered in San Diego for encouragement and refreshment after a trying three years of disruption.

Leadership is challenging. I’m not sure if there is anyone who read that opening sentence and disagreed. I, however, am convinced that Christian leadership is even more challenging. The expectations that come with being a Christ-centered leader are often unfair and sometimes even unbiblical. Accountability can be seen as un-Christlike. Expectations can be seen as demanding. A firing can be the ultimate example of “lacking grace.” And you know what? Sometimes, as Christian leaders, we ar...| ACSI Blog
In today’s rapidly shifting educational landscape, schools face numerous challenges, such as increased anxiety, diminishing respect for teachers, and the devaluation of schools.
