Mineral Heights Christian Academy, a ministry of mineral Heights Baptist Church, was founded in 1997 with 68 students enrolled in kindergarten through 6th grade. The congregation at MHBC had a desire to meet a need in the community. An affordable Academy to help Christian parents train and educate their children in the ways of God. Since it’s beginning MHCA has been in the pursuit of excellence and improvement. In 2005 the academy began an extensive athletic program including basketball and volleyball along with cheerleading and joining the Metroplex Christian Athletics Conference.
The mission of Mineral Heights Christian Academy is to provide an education through which Christian parents can fulfill their responsibility to “Train up a child in the way he should go.” (Proverbs 22:6). MHCA is designed to be a supporting element to the values and standard found in the Christian home and to assist parents in producing young men and women who are prepared spiritually, academically, socially, and physically to face the challenges of the future.
Mineral Heights Christian Academy is subjected to the constitution and by-laws of the church. This is not meant to be dictatorial, but to co-here church and school. MHCA exists to impact the lives of this generation of children, thus meeting the needs of Christian parents who seek to follow God’s commandment to teach their children His ways.
Statement of Faith
- We believe in the verbal inspiration and authority of the SCRIPTURES
(II Timothy 3:16 & II Peter 1:20-21)
NOTE If the SCRIPTURES are not true, then we have no proof of the Christian faith.
- We believe in the virgin birth of JESUS CHRIST (Isaiah 7:14 & Matthew 1:23)
NOTE If CHRIST was not virgin born, then HE was a sinner and not able to be our perfect substitute for salvation (II Corinthians 5:21)
- We believe in the TRINITY: GOD THE FATHER, GOD THE SON, and GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT, thus the deity of JESUS CHRIST (Genesis 1:26 & I John 5:7)
NOTE If CHRIST is not God, then HE was a liar and not able to be our sinless sacrifice for salvation
(Isaiah 53:3-9 & I John 3:5).
- We believe that JESUS CHRIST died for our sins, was buried, and rose again and that salvation is “by grace” plus nothing, minus nothing, thus baptism or any other forms of good works are not part of salvation.
(Ephesians 2:8 & 9).
NOTE If CHRIST did not die for sinners and rise again, then there is NO salvation (I Corinthians 15:17 & 18)
- We believe in the visible, personal and pre-millennial Second Coming of JESUS CHRIST.
(Daniel 7:13 & 9:24 &25 & Acts 1:10 & 11)
NOTE If CHRIST does not return, then again HE is a liar, the Bible is not true, and many other promises connected with His coming cannot be fulfilled (John 14: 1-3)
- We believe that God has commanded that no intimate sexual activity be engaged in outside of a marriage between a man and a woman. We believe that any form of homosexuality, lesbianism, bisexuality, bestiality, incest, fornication, adultery, and pornography are sinful perversions of God’s gift of sex (Genesis 2:24; Genesis 19: 5-7, 13; Genesis 26: 8-9; Leviticus 18: 1-30, 20:13; Romans 1:26—29; I Corinthians 5:1, 6:9; I Thessalonians 4: 1-8; Hebrews 13:4). We believe that the only legitimate marriage is the joining of one man and one woman (Genesis 2:24; Romans 7: 2; I Corinthians 7:10; Ephesians 5: 22—23).
Our goal for each student is:
- To know the love of Jesus Christ through example and teaching, to learn the importance of showing this love to others.
- To acquire a lifestyle of Christian character, morality, respect, and responsibility.
- To participate in acquiring the very finest education attainable in a school whose expectations are constantly being increased.
- To find daily at MHCA an atmosphere of love, joy righteousness, and respect.
