Form of Education

Noah Webster defines "education" as:
"The bringing up, as of a child; instruction; formation of manners. Education comprehends all that series of instruction and discipline which is intended to enlighten the understanding, correct the temper, and dorm the manners and habits of youth, and fit them for usefulness in their future stations. To give children a good education in manners arts and science, is important; to give them a religious education is indispensable; and an immense responsibility rests on parents and guardians who neglect these duties."

Using a hybrid model and implementing a classical form of education, Resolved Academy seeks to be distinctively Biblical in all facets of ministry. By bringing back the classic philosophical strategy of educating the entirety of each student, which trained brilliant men such as Jonathan Edwards and Noah Webster, Resolved Academy will prepare each individual to live for Christ.

1. The Word of God is the foundation of all education.
2. Renewing the mind to regulate conscience is the purpose of education.
3. Biblical self-government is the result of education.
4. The Gospel is the primary focus of all education.
5. Glorifying God is the goal of all education.

1. Biblical reasoning is the foundation of learning.
2. Responsible exploration expands the horizon of learning.
3. Engaging in apprenticeships solidifies learning.
4. Proper reflection establishes the record of learning.
5. Effective communication generates exponential learning.

Resolved Academy's philosophy and methodology of education embraces a classical and historic process of Biblical reasoning. This form of learning establishes Scripture as the foundation of every subject, makes the Glory of God the purpose of education and centers the Gospel as the focus of teaching.

Resolved Academy's chief purpose is to teach students how to reason from a distinctively Biblical worldview. According to Proverbs 1:7, a man's knowledge has no worth if he does not obtain wisdom. Resolved Academy provides the structure of Truth that frames true education. Wisdom is the key to understanding, and the Resolved Educator's methodology forms Godly wisdom as the student learns how to think and reason. This form of education guides the student to learn to redirect their mind, will and emotions toward the Glory of God.
