Mr. Sijpheer & his dog Jak teach about roaming vs. staying close

Watch the principal's weekly video to learn how we've really got it made when we stay connected to God.

In his weekly video for students, Mr. Sijpheer takes us to the field behind his house and shows us how his dog Jak gets distracted and tends to roam. It's easy to get distracted and roam, but when we are disciplined and train ourselves to stay in the presence of God, He gives us incredible peace and joy.

"This is what the LORD says -- your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: "I am the LORD your God, who teaches you what is best for you, who directs you in the way you should go. If only you had paid attention to my commands, your peace would have been like a river, your righteousness like the waves of the sea." -- Isaiah 48:17-18
