Who We Are

We are Faith!

Our mantra is a short, simple sentence with deep meaning and long-lasting effects

Grapevine Faith Football is more than football – it’s a platform where our commitment to faith and football don’t compete with each other but complement one another Our coaches teach and model how to be authentic Christian leaders in the locker room, the classroom, at church, at home, and in the community

We play serious football at Faith! But that’s just part of what makes us Faith Football

While we are proud of the athletes we have helped elevate into the next level of our sport, we are prouder of how we carry out our school’s mission of developing authentic Christian leaders.

Players who graduate from our program are leaders long after their high school playing days are over due to the lessons our coaches have instilled in them throughout their time at Faith. Coaching football at our school impacts more than just our players-our coaches’ influence multiplies beyond our players into their families, their universities, and their careers. We strive to shape our football players now so that they will affect generations still to come

Faith Football impacts the lives of more than those who earn the privilege of wearing the Lion head on their helmets Faith Football builds champions for today and for life

Player Testimonials

"Playing football at Faith was one of the most formative and character-building experiences of my life. I learned early what it takes to work as a team, how to lead others, and how to handle adversity "

"The history of Faith Football produces championships, titles, and excellence on the field The Legacy of Faith Football produces better husbands, better fathers and God-fearing men who understand what servant leadership truly means Faith Football exists at the intersection of fierce competition and Kingdom impact The standard of excellence forged by Faith Football has equipped me to lead my home, serve my church, and pursue Christ in a way I could have never imagined "

"Faith Football gave an opportunity for the players to cultivate our physical abilities, but more importantly, it allowed the players to learn important life lessons such as the importance of hard work, the satisfaction in doing something difficult, and the need for strong Christian men."

"Faith Football is a historic program with decades of success to its name The players and staff consistently present the attributes of dedication, work ethic, toughness, and compassion These attributes have yielded success in both winning seasons and developing Christ-like men."

"With such a rich history of success and honor, both on and off the field, Faith Football was important to me because it's the platform we stood on, but the culture of love was infinitely more important becasue it gave me the ability to impact and to be impacted in ways greater than I could have ever imagined "

Statement of Faith

WE BELIEVE

The Bible to be the inspired, infallible, immutable Word of God (II Timothy 3:15, II Peter 1:21) There is one God, eternally existent in three persons- Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Genesis 1:1, Matthew 28:19, John 10:30)

In the deity of Christ (John 10:33); His virgin birth (Isaiah 7:14; Matthew 1:23; Luke 1:35); His sinless life (Hebrews 4:15; Hebrews 7:26); His miracles (John 2:11); His substitutionary atoning death (I Corinthians 15:3; Ephesians 1:7; Hebrews 2:9) His resurrection (John 11:25; I Corinthians 15:4); His Ascension to the right hand of the Father (Mark 16:19); and His personal return in power and glory (Acts 1:11; Revelation 19:11)

In the absolute necessity of regeneration by the Holy Spirit for salvation because of the exceeding sinfulness of the human nature; and that people are justified on the single ground of faith and the shed blood of Christ and that only by God’s grace and through faith alone we are saved Believing in and accepting Christ brings about a vital living personal relationship to every believer (Romans 10:9-13; John 3:16-19; John 5:24; Romans 3:23; Romans 5:8,9; Ephesians 2:8-10; Titus 3:5)

In the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved unto the resurrection of life, and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation (John 5:28-29)

In the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ (Romans 8:9; I Corinthians 12:12,13; Galatians 3:26-28)

In the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life (Romans 8:13,14; I Corinthians 3:16; I Corinthians 6:19-20; Ephesians 4:30; Ephesians 5:18)

That the term marriage has only one meaning: the uniting of one man and one woman in a single, exclusive union, as delineated in Scripture (Genesis 2:18-25) We believe that God intends sexual intimacy to occur only between a man and a woman who are married to each other (I Corinthians 6:18, 7:25; Hebrews 13:4) We believe that God’s command is that there be no sexual intimacy outside of or apart from marriage between a man and a woman

That God wonderfully foreordained and immutably created each person as either male or female in conformity with their biological sex These two distinct yet complementary genders together reflect the image and nature of God (Genesis 1:26-27)

That all human life is sacred and created by God in His image Human life is of inestimable worth in all its dimensions, including pre-born babies, the aged, the physically or mentally challenged, and every other stage or condition from conception through natural death We are therefore called to defend, protect, and value all human life (Psalm 139).

Our Statement of Faith is not exhaustive of all of our beliefs The Bible, as the inspired and infallible Word of God, speaks with absolute authority regarding the proper conduct of mankind and is the unchanging foundation for all belief and behavior The Grapevine Faith Christian School Board of Trustees holds final interpretive authority on biblical meaning and application with regard to faith, doctrine, policy, practice, and discipline.
