Manna's Mission
TO TRAIN the student in the knowledge of the Holy Scriptures in order that he be intellectually and spiritually equipped to teach others.
TO EQUIP the student for the defense of the Gospel in a day of apostasy, and to earnestly contend for the faith once delivered to the saints both in beliefs and behavior.
TO NURTURE the student in the Word of God for the purpose of guiding him toward Christian maturity and the ability to evaluate those gifts and skills bestowed upon him by the Holy Spirit. To help him discover his place in the service of Christ and humanity.
TO HELP the student toward such personality development and the acquisition of such skills as are necessary to church-related vocations and lay ministries.
TO ASSIST the student in an understanding of his own and other cultures and of the role of his culture in the total world of today.
TO THINK logically and in harmony with the Word of God, to understand the methods and means of research common to Bible study and independent study, to aid the student to interpret his findings in the light of a biblical world view and to skillfully communicate them to others with persuasion and power.
TO TEACH the student the value of a life of personal separation unto God, the privilege and potential of the prayer life and the necessity for proper motives in all of life and labor.
TO IMPART to the student an abiding sense of the spiritual need of a lost world, and specifically to equip many to answer the challenge of inner-city ministry with all its opportunities for evangelism and Christian education.
