On September 2, 2025, First Baptist Academy Leander will open its doors for grades K-5 as a biblically-integrated private Christian school in the city of Leander as the realization of a six year dream of Tim C. Moore, the pastor of First Baptist Church Leander and multi-year prayer of many church members. Prayerfully, Grades will be added each year until graduation of our first senior class.
John 12:21:
Then they came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and asked him, saying, “Sir, we wish to see Jesus.”
We believe that the family is God’s foundational institution for human society.
Therefore, we encourage and support lifelong commitments to marriage between one man and one woman, and we support the ongoing spiritual nurture of the family.
1. Theological
The scriptural argument is clear—Christian discipleship is the primary calling and priority of the church. The service and contributions to families, congregations, and the common good are profound. By starting schools, churches can significantly enhance their service and contributions to families, congregations, and the broader community. Christian discipleship is central to the church’s mission, and schools provide a daily environment for reinforcing virtue.
2. Historical
The church has a rich history of commitment to education, providing a robust precedent for modern Christians. Today, we are grossly out of step with this historical mission, highlighting the need for a renewed focus on conservative Christian educational initiatives.
3. Cultural
In today’s shifting cultural climate and increasing secularization, there is a pressing need for strategic Christian engagement. Schools can act as outposts for upholding Christian principles, equipping students to thoughtfully and effectively engage with the world.
4. Strategic
The window of opportunity for educational reform in America is wider than ever. Many parents are dissatisfied with current options, schools are failing to teach at grade level reading and writing skills and numerous other factors favor the establishment of church-led schools. We believe the time is now and the need is urgent.
