A Heart Sharing!

God evening to you!

Living Tree Academy has a slogan, “Where Education and Adventure meet”.
But, what exactly does this mean?!?

If one chooses to track the history of education, the roots do not spring from
brick structures where ivy grows on the walls and stuffy egotistical old men
flaunt their intellectual skills over inspiring minds for allegiance, instead it stems
from bright eyed students listening intently to the wise. (With wisdom coming from the  application of knowledge). In other words, the young bright student listening to those that have put into application the teachings which they expound.

These teacher student relationships can been seen in great examples like Aristotle, Plato, Socrates, Elijah, and Jesus Christ. It is this master/student relationship which Living Tree Academy is in pursuit of.  

We are looking for those that have knowledge and WISDOM to impart. Whether it is in  language, organic gardening, finance, health, science, child care,  or the right dividing of the Word of God; Living Tree Academy seeks out doers!!!

Those that want to break out of the mold of society and aspire to greatness in education; Are ALWAYS welcome at LTA.

What Is The Way Corps?

Not ancient walls and ivy-mantled towers
Where dull denominational traditions
Rule with heavy hand
Believer’s deeply springing powers.

Not spacious pleasure courts
Or lofty temples of athletic fame
Where devotees of sports mistake a pastime
For life’s highest game.

Not fashion or renown
Or wealthy patronage and rich estate;
No, none of these can crown The Way Corps with light And make it truly great.

But equipped believers, ambassadors strong and wise
Who teach because they love the teacher’s task
And find their richest prize
In eyes that open, and in minds that ask.
