Summary
In this episode of the Bulldog Morning Update, we begin with a powerful reflection on First Epistle of Peter 1:17–19, where Peter calls believers to live with reverence, not מתוך fear, but from a deep understanding of what it cost to redeem us. This passage reminds us that while we now approach God as Father through Christ, our lives still matter as evidence of transformed hearts. We were not purchased with temporary things, but with the precious blood of Jesus Christ, the fulfillment of the spotless Passover Lamb. Because of that, we are called to live differently, as strangers in this world who belong fully to Him. We then celebrate members of our BBA family, including alumni Damion Aarons II, students Kanye, Gayeon, and Seth, and faculty member Mr. Jerome Keels. The day continues with Beef and Broccoli Stir Fry for lunch and exciting athletic matchups as Varsity Soccer and Baseball compete. In our Moment of Connection, we take a clear look at the role of the Superintendent. As the sole employee of the Board, this role carries the responsibility of leading every aspect of the academy, from academics to operations, while remaining aligned to the mission of developing disciples of Christ who pursue academic excellence. This is leadership rooted in stewardship, accountability, and faithfulness to God’s calling.
