“Conviction” for this application, means a final judgment or verdict of guilty, a plea of guilty, or a plea of non contendere, in any state or federal court, regardless of whether an appeal is pending or could be taken. “Conviction” does not include a final judgment or verdict that has been expunged by pardon, reversed, set aside or otherwise rendered invalid. Further, you are not required to disclose any arrest(s), criminal charge(s) or conviction(s), the record(s) of which have been erased under the law. Such records can include records of a finding of delinquency or that a child was a member of a family with service needs, adjudication of youthful offender status, criminal charges dismissed or nolled, or charges for which a person is found not guilty, or a conviction later resulting in an absolute pardon. Further, any person whose criminal records have been erased is deemed under law never to have been arrested with respect to such erased proceedings and may so swear under oath. A history of criminal conviction(s) will not necessarily bar consideration of employment. Factors such as the time, seriousness and nature of the offense, as well as rehabilitation, will be taken into account. Should you have any questions about answering questions on this application, or your rights concerning erased records, please contact Human Resources.

In the event that you do receive a call to interview, please come prepared to discuss your on-going faith journey.

The following statement is reaffirmed annually by all the members of the Faculty and Staff at The Master’s School and represents our commitment to faith.

We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We believe in the deity of Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and His personal return in power and glory. We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God. We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful man regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential. We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life. We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost, they who are saved unto the resurrection of life and they who are lost unto the resurrection of damnation. We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.

Do you fully subscribe to this statement of faith?

Yes

If your response is "no", please comment on your reservations:

Sharing Your Faith: Recognizing that Faculty and Staff are expected to be concerned with the total life of our students, would you comment on your willingness to lead and assist students by example, prayer and counseling in coming to a meaningful relationship with Jesus Christ?

Are you an active member of any congregation?

Yes

If yes, please provide your church's name, address, phone number, pastor name, and any church activities you are involved with.

List four references who can assess your professional ability, personality and character. If possible, please include your pastor. Please provide complete name, address (including zip code), telephone number and email address.
