Meet Tony Rappa

Today, I’m blessed with a wife who shares my devotion to God, and together we attend Faith Community Church. I have an amazing son in his thirties and now my family has expanded with a one-year-old daughter and a newborn son, and we’re fortunate to have both sets of grandparents actively involved in their lives.

My focus now lies in living a life worthy of God’s blessings, honoring Him through my thoughts, actions, and unwavering faith. Each day is an opportunity to glorify His presence in my life, spreading His love and compassion to those around me.

OUR VALUES

We equip minds and hearts through Gospel‐centered teaching, aiming to cultivate Christlike thinkers who live, lead, and serve in truth. In all we teach, we want people to better know God, wrestle faithfully with Scripture, and be transformed by the renewing of their minds.

We believe that true learning is more than information — it is discipleship. The Word of God is our ultimate authority and sufficient guide for life. Our philosophy is that education must be rooted in Scripture, taught with humility, and lived out in community. We hold that God is sovereign over all knowledge, and that every subject, idea, and discipline must submit to His Lordship.

We are committed to clarity, faithfulness, and rigor. We will teach in a way that is accessible yet deep, honoring the Bible’s integrity and applying it to real life. We commit to caring relationships: we listen, teach, correct, and walk alongside learners with patience and grace. And we promise to steward our resources — material, intellectual, spiritual — with accountability and excellence.

We promise that when you engage with us, you won’t just receive knowledge — you will be encouraged toward wisdom, spiritual growth, and lasting transformation. We pledge to be honest about ambiguity, candid about challenge, and faithful in integrating truth with life.

  • Scripture-Centered — We affirm the full inspiration, inerrancy, and sufficiency of the Bible.

  • Sovereign Grace — We trust God’s sovereignty in salvation and in learning, recognizing that growth is ultimately His work.

  • Community — We learn best together. Relationships, discussion, and mutual accountability are integral.

  • Intellectual Humility — We hold our ideas lightly, always submitted to Scripture, growing and revising as God leads.

  • Transformation — Our goal is not merely information, but formation: hearts and lives changed toward Christlikeness.
