“God said, ‘Let there be light,’ and there was light.” – Genesis 1:3 (NIV)
At Edify, we believe education is more than academics — it is discipleship, shaping hearts and minds to live Coram Deo, “before the face of God.” This Latin phrase reminds us that every part of life is lived in His presence, under His authority, and for His glory.
A Life of Integrity
To live Coram Deo is to live with wholeness and purpose, rejecting a fragmented faith limited to Sundays. Whether a teacher guiding a lesson, a school proprietor leading with wisdom, a student discovering potential, or a financial partner giving generously, every action holds spiritual significance. As Jesus was faithful in both carpentry and ministry, we are called to honor God in all we do.
Education as Kingdom Work
Transformation begins when learning aligns with a biblical worldview. When students study through the lens of Scripture, they prepare not only for careers but also for lives of service and Christ-like leadership. Christ-centered education cultivates wisdom, integrity, and a commitment to justice that extends beyond the classroom.
Restoring Shalom Through Learning
Humanity was created for shalom: a state of wholeness with God, others, and creation. Today, education can help restore that harmony by equipping students with wisdom, justice, and love. The goal reaches beyond personal achievement to shaping communities for God’s glory.
Edify walks alongside schools to realize our vision of Flourishing Godly Nations, developing students who live Coram Deo, seek truth, and reflect Christ’s Kingdom in all they do. Learn more at edify.org.
