Spirit

Christian Life at Brentwood Academy involves the classroom, the playing field, the band room, and the hallways.

MORE THAN BIBLE CLASS

CHRISTIAN LIFE

In addition to the programs and classes available, Christian Life at Brentwood Academy involves the classroom, the playing field, the band room, and the hallways.

We believe that everything is spiritual and that Jesus Christ gives everything purpose. Every faculty and staff member has a personal and growing relationship with Christ. While the religious beliefs of each student will be respected, the school will continuously teach biblical truths and values.

GOOD FRIDAY MESSAGE


ROMANS 15:5-6 (NIV; THEME VERSE 1998-1999, 2008-2009)

May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you a spirit of unity among yourselves as you follow Christ Jesus, so that with one heart and mouth you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

We are passionate about Christian Life at BA because of the opportunity to sow small seeds that can transform a student’s life. Our hope is that Christian Life extends beyond a course, or a chapel, but is something that reflects a real, personal relationship with Jesus, and is lived out in our daily lives.

BA VOICES

Brentwood Academy is a co-educational, independent, college preparatory school dedicated to nurturing and challenging each whole person – body, mind, and spirit – to the glory of God. No one tells our story better than our teachers and students.

My teachers have always made it clear that they prioritize me. They don't want me to just be able to make the grades, but they want the curriculum to better me as a person. They challenge me to push beyond just memorization, but help me develop the skills to apply it to my life every day. They are always willing to give up their own time so that we can have confidence in what we learn.

We’re passionate about students developing and deepening a personal relationship with Jesus as their Lord and Savior. Through Bible classes, chapels, and everyday experiences and conversations, we’re praying that they come to more fully know God’s Word and encounter His heart. I’m really excited to see how God continues to move here at BA in the lives of our students and faculty!

As students open and share their hearts and minds, the Lord’s favor, mercy, and grace in our efforts in the Bible department are extremely tangible. It is evident that the Lord is opening wide the door of the ministry of His Word, doing above and beyond what we can imagine.

Being part of Brentwood Academy has helped me grow in so many ways. The friendships here are incredible, with a strong sense of support both in academics and sports. Exploring different activities has helped me discover new passions, while the teachers challenge and inspire us to do our best. Beyond academics, the values of responsibility and respect have shaped me into a better person, preparing me for whatever comes next.

COLOSSIANS 3:12-14 (NIV; BA THEME VERSE 2011-2012)

 

Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.

WAYS WE ENGAGE OUR FAITH

STUDENT OPPORTUNITIES

Students are in God's word every morning at BA. Weekly, students participate in chapel, engaging with important devotions and topics. Additionally, students can partake in Bible studies, student-led worship nights, and more.

BA DADS

BA Dads provides opportunities throughout the year for dads to connect with each other for fellowship, fun, and service. On Friday mornings at BA, dads gather on campus for fellowship and a time of devotion. There are also many opportunities for volunteering, service, and community building.

MOMS BIBLE STUDIES

At BA, we believe that being in God's word as a community is important. Mom’s Bible Studies are an opportunity for moms to build relationships while also exploring the story of the Bible and what it means to follow Jesus.
SPIRIT

OUR STUDENTS PURSUE JESUS

The school year begins with a retreat where Seniors choose the theme verse to set the tone for their final year. Our programming is designed to support students' pursuit of a relationship with Jesus. This is supported by Bible Studies, worship nights, and opportunities to share devotions with upper school and middle school students.

PROVERBS 3:5-6 (ESV; BA THEME VERSE 2024-2025)


"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths."
