About Jesus School

At Jesus School, we gather each day to sit at the feet of Jesus.
We will worship Him, learn of Him, and go out from this place to share the Gospel with the entire world by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Jesus School
2025-2026 Recap

Missions and Outreach

Missions

Missions is at the heart of Jesus School. Twice a year, we send our students out to preach the Gospel, pray for the sick, and serve those in need—bringing the love and power of Jesus beyond the classroom and into the world.


What our Jesus School team witnessed in the Philippines marked us deeply. The Gospel of Jesus was proclaimed boldly, and hundreds responded by giving their lives to Him. The sick were healed and hope was brought into jails as many men surrendered to Christ. The poor were served, the hungry were fed, and the love of Jesus was made tangible. This is the power of the Gospel. Thank you Jesus!

 

Outreach

Missions and Outreach are critical parts of being a Jesus School Student. Our students go out weekly to share the love of Jesus, and we dedicate a week each semester to go out and preach the gospel, both to our hometown of Orlando and the nations of the world.

Raising Up a Jesus People

THE NATURE OF GOD

God is one Being in three distinct divine Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The worship of the Holy Trinity is the great mandate of the Christian life.  



THE PERSON OF JESUS

Who is Jesus Christ? The answer to this one question is pivotal to the Christian life. It is imperative for us as disciples to know the identity and person of Jesus. He is fully God and fully man. He is clearly depicted throughout the Old Testament and revealed through His life, death, and resurrection in the New Testament. The entire Bible directs us to Jesus.  Jesus Christ Himself is the Christian message and must be the obsession of every Christian.  

“And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent.” John 17:3 NKJV
 

RICH THEOLOGY

Theology flows from the Scriptures and the tradition of the Church. True theology is the knowledge of the Person of God and should lead Christians into a holy experience with the Lord Himself. Biblical theology does not need to be sacrificed in order to experience the Lord; in fact, it is meant to fuel that experience. We live in a day when truth is desperately needed. Jesus School unites a Biblical and creedal faith with a vibrant life in the Spirit.  

DEEP COMMUNITY

Christianity is lived out in the context of community. We’re commanded to love and walk with each other. It is through community that we experience the Lord’s presence and His person as expressed through those around us. Serving each other is serving the Lord.

“Jesus said to him, ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.” Matthew 22:37-40 NKJV  

SACRAMENTAL LIFE

A sacrament (mysteria) is the divine power of God filling creation with His presence,  that He might form us into His image. This becomes a foretaste of the kingdom to come. Sacraments such as baptism, the Eucharist, and others are gifts from God. Life itself is sacramental. 


 

GLORIOUS WORSHIP

The greatest privilege in life is to unapologetically worship Jesus, to give honor and glory to the One who saved us. Worship is the activity of heaven. Authentic worship creates an environment the Lord dwells in. If we are going to pray for His kingdom to come on earth as it is in heaven, then worship must be central. 

CHURCH HISTORY

We value understanding the move of God throughout the history of the Church. By studying the defining moments, movements, and people who have shaped Church history, we gain a deeper understanding of where we have come from and how the Lord has worked through generations. We believe there is much to learn from those who have gone before us as we continue to follow Jesus in our generation. 

LIVES OF THE SAINTS

We honor the lives of the saints from all Christian traditions who have gone before us. Their lives are products of the Lord’s grace flowing through human vessels. We have been beneficiaries of their examples: lives laid down in martyrdom, teaching, study, the creeds, and so forth. As Christians, we are designed to be members of a family, and these forefathers and foremothers are part of our family. When we value the lives of the saints, it etches into our souls a sense of holy responsibility.

THE EXPERIENCE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT

We believe in the move and power of the Holy Spirit. It is the Holy Spirit who makes Jesus real to us. The gifts express the character and Person of the  Holy Spirit. These graces are meant to build up the Body and reveal the Lord Jesus. Without the power of the Spirit, one cannot preach or receive the Gospel. 

 

A MISSIONAL CALL

We believe in sharing the love of Jesus through both preaching and action. Preaching the Gospel and taking the message of Jesus to the broken are central to our mission. Compassion is a vital component of the Christian life, and we are called to make sacrifices to reach people in need. Students will become the hands and feet of Jesus as they preach the Gospel, help the poor, visit the elderly, and serve the community.  We must share the love of Jesus with the world.    

“And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, ‘All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,  teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.’ Amen.” Matthew 28:18-20 NKJV

DISCIPLESHIP

Discipleship is the intentional formation of people into the image of the Lord Jesus. This is the work of Christ, as He is the One who truly executes the discipleship. This formation takes place through the foundational cultural pillars of Jesus School.
