IGNITE ACADEMY COVENANTAL COMMUNITY & COVENANTAL RELATIONSHIP WITH ONE ANOTHER

As members of the Ignite Academy community, in committed relationship with one another, we will strive for with intentionality, a covenantal mandate upon the way we live, serve and minister.  We hold as the core values of Ignite Academy that we will:

PURSUE GOD TOGETHER

Prayer – We believe that prayer should be our first response in everything and should be how we
begin our day.

Scripture – We will search and study God’s Word together, believing that becoming familiar with
His voice begins with becoming familiar with His Word.

Devotion – We are committed to not only the reading and studying of God’s Word, but also the
meditation on God’s Word throughout our day.

Worship – We believe we were created to worship God and recognize that we were created to be
creative in worship, as an expression of who we are in Christ.

Personal Character – We believe that accountability to one another, in our pursuit of God together,
is more than an assignment, but instead a personal character building process.

BUILD COMMUNITY TOGETHER

Selfless Perspective – As we learn to be servant leaders, we know that means putting the needs
and aspirations of others before our own.  We serve the fulfillment of God’s purpose and plan in the
lives of those around us.

Safe Place – We will do our part in making the Ignite Academy campus a “safe place,” free from inappropriate conversations, behaviors, pursuits or activities.

Heart of Repentance – We believe that we are all in pursuit of righteousness and desire to live
accordingly.  We also recognize the fact that we have all sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. 
Therefore, we choose to walk in awareness of our need to repent of our sins, and be recipients of
the forgiving grace and mercy of God.

Heart of Forgiveness – We believe that in the same way we have been forgiven by the grace of
God, we must not withhold forgiveness in our own community.

Honor Set Standards – We believe that rules have been established by both Ignite Academy and Life Pacific College, not as a means to control, but with the hope to create a safe environment that is conducive for healthy learning and personal growth.

Personal Character – We believe that accountability to one another, in our pursuit to build a
community together, is more than an assignment, but a personal character building process.

STAY FOCUSED TOGETHER

Kingdom Living – We believe that we are to grow in Kingdom of God perspective in our daily
response to challenges, our pursuit of ministry opportunities, and in our sensitivity to the Spirit for
our daily walk.

Big Picture Perspective – We want to be “big picture” thinkers, never getting caught up in “close
proximity” limitations to the grander scheme of God’s purpose and plan for our lives.

Learning and Serving Before Pleasure – We believe that having fun is at the core of everything
we do, but not at the expense of our commitment to learn and serve.  First things first!  Class time,
homework and ministry assignments are valued as priorities.  Personal free time and opportunities
to have fun are built into the schedule as well.

Personal Character – We believe that accountability to one another, in our attention to detail and
staying focused on the things we are responsible for, is more than an assignment, but a personal
character building process.
