Welcome to TMA Athletics

Ministry isn’t defined by roles or responsibilities. Our daily activities are merely a function of our ministry and a means to communicate who Christ is through our words and actions. I am grateful for the opportunity to serve at The Master’s Academy. I am eager to meet the staff, students, and families that make up this body of Christian education. Sports is about buildi

ng relationships and pursuing excellence in all areas (both in and out of competition). Success, as defined by society, is a by-product of executing our tasks while pursuing righteousness. It isn’t achieved individually; it requires a body with each member fulfilling their role. Achievement is most rewarding when it is done in harmony with each other. Philippians 2 defines a spirit of unity and “one” in purpose. Our actions are to be defined by humility and service as Jesus so clearly lived out. Jesus, Master of the Universe, even humbled himself to the point of death on a cross. Certainly, we can follow his example and serve each other as we pursue Him daily. Components essential to school athletics:
Connection Culture: Share Vision, Feel Valued, Have a Voice (UNITY)
Communication: We must know and articulate who we are (our identity)
Collaboration: We must know what we are doing/where we are going (our plan)
Character: We must know why we do what we do (our purpose)

Working together, we can impact our campus, the greater community, and establish leaders for future generations. The mission of TMA is “Pursuing spiritual and academic excellence with Christian families by going the second mile.” Athletics is an excellent opportunity to demonstrate this principle. As athletes, coaches, administrators, or supporters – we must practice this principle. We are purposeful in our efforts with the student-athletes as we follow the Luke 2:52 model of personal development where it states, “And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature and in favor with God and man.” This verse gives us our template as we seek to develop the mental (wisdom), physical (stature), spiritual (favor with God) and social (favor with man) well-being of the student athlete. It is important that you take a moment to read over our Athletic Philosophy and our Core values. Please take the opportunity to introduce yourself or set a time that we can meet. I would love to learn more about your family and your experience as an Eagle.
