Our Vision Scripture

ROMANS 12:2

Our vision scripture is the main scriptural lens through which God is calling us to serve.  This verse will be the main filter for which Kansas City Christian will accomplish God’s calling and holy purpose for the school: infusing a biblical worldview and a passion for Jesus Christ into an excellent academic program.

“Do not conform to the pattern of this world,
but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.
Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—
His good, pleasing and perfect will.”
[ROMANS 12:2] NIV

Romans 12:2 is the vision scripture for KCC. It was selected after discerning God’s direction and gathering information in the following ways:

  • interviewing school founders and long-time staff about God’s original calling and beginning establishment of the school
  • studying KCC’s rich history using school archives including yearbooks, print materials, and other historical documents saved through the years
  • conducting multiple surveys taken by 42 strategically selected people, forming a group that represents all facets of who we serve in the KCC community
