We do not view our students merely as consumers; they are creators. CCS graduates are neither solely recipients nor deliverers of information. Rather, they are solutions-oriented, innovative thinkers that embrace the process of identifying and solving problems. They k now that this process often requires them to step outside of the box. Th ey know the importance of investigating Scripture on their own and owning their own faith. Th ey are known for the questions they ask. COLLABORATOR “The eye cannot say to the hand, ‘I don’t need you!’ And the head cannot say to the feet, ‘I don’t need you!’On the contrary, those parts of the body that seemtobeweaker are indispensable, and theparts that we think are less honorable we treat with special honor. And theparts that areunpresentable are treated with special modesty, while our
body and has given greater honor to the parts that lacked it, so that there should be no division in the body, but that its parts should have equal concern for each other.” - 1 Corinthians 12:20-25 American society is now a global society.

This is our top priority because the value of the remaining portrait descriptors has a ceiling without the purpose and balance found in a relationshipwithChrist. CREATIVE PROBLEM SOLVER

For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve,and to give his life as a ransom for many.” - Mark 10:42-45 In a society of sel fi es, CCS graduates put others fi rst. Th ey have been provided opportunities to be trained as Jesus-style leaders – those who lead by fi rst serving. Lancers can be evangelizers, mentors, disciples, and servant- leaders all while still on the CCS campus. Compassion is practically applied by students both on campus and for others in our community and on the mission field world-wide.
