Faculty & Board

Welcome from Head of School, Dr. Joshua Farrell

I want to welcome you to the website of Trinity Christian School. As you explore this site, I pray that you will see that TCS is a truly unique school in Statesboro and Bulloch County. We are a school that is dedicated to providing an excellent education from a truly Christian perspective. As our mission statement says, 

“Trinity Christian School, a ministry of Trinity Presbyterian Church, seeks to honor Jesus Christ by preparing students academically, equipping students to view the world and its culture from a Christian perspective, and developing in students’ hearts a desire to serve God and others.”

I believe this mission statement sums up what TCS is all about. It speaks to our mission in three categories – the head, the heart, and the hands.

Head – preparing students academically. At Trinity Christian School we are committed to providing an outstanding academic education to our students. God has called us to love Him with all our minds, so we want our students to leave here with a broad and deep knowledge of the world God has made.

Heart – equipping students to view the world and its culture from a biblical perspective. Biblical wisdom is the ability to apply the truth from God’s word in how one thinks, speaks, and acts on a daily basis. The fear of the Lord, which is the foundation of all true wisdom, begins when a person submits to what God says is right or wrong, true or false, beneficial or hurtful. Thus, no matter how much knowledge a person accumulates, if he/she does not recognize that submission to God’s word is the only way to rightly interpret the world around them, then that person will never truly be wise. 

Hands – developing in students’ hearts a desire to serve God and others. As Christians we are called to follow Christ’s example of service (Philippians 2). God has served us by giving us his Son, and we are to serve him and serve one another out of gratitude for what he has done for us.

As you go through our website, I trust that you will get a glimpse  of the uniqueness of the mission and ministry of Trinity Christian School.

In service,
Dr. Joshua Farrell
