Three Core Values of FTS
BIBLICAL SCHOLARSHIP
Our commitment is to provide a scholarly and biblical foundation to equip followers of Christ for service in all vocational callings, serving God’s creational and redemptional mission by preparing believers to interpret and apply Scripture’s story of God’s work in creation, fall, redemption, and restoration through a Christ-centered Biblical Theology.
Christian Vocation
Our goal is that graduates are prepared to serve in ecclesiastic, educational, and community service vocations with increased skill in wisdom-living by fulfilling the creational commissions bestowed in Eden upon humanity made in God’s image: to build knowledge through naming all creation so as to serve, work, steward, be fruitful and multiply, subdue, and have dominion.
GOSPEL MISSIONS
Our mission is to grow and equip followers of Christ as disciples, a royal priesthood who represent God’s glorious image, presence, and gospel in the workplace, in the church, and on the foreign field by proclaiming Christ to all the world through word and action. We affirm that the whole Bible reveals the whole gospel for the whole person proclaimed by the whole church for the whole world.
