WORD OF GOD ACADEMY WOGA is currently enrolling ages K-5th Grade and has plans to offer a pre-school for the 2011 school year. The school intends to add at minimum one grade level per year with a goal of offering Pre- K through 12th grade classes. The vision of WOGA includes building a new high school on Word of God Ministries’ 143 acre site at 6645 Industrial Loop at the corner of Buncombe Road.

One of the long-standing visions for Pastor James, his wife Chrissy and the founding members of Word of God Ministries was for the ministry to have its own school. After placing their first child at Summer Grove Baptist Academy in 2009, Pastor James and Chrissy were so impressed with the standard of academic excellence in a truly Christian environment they considered scrapping the idea of WOGM beginning its own school and just supporting SGBA.

But the Lord had a plan in place that would go beyond our thoughts or imaginations! Before the end of SGBA’s premier school year, Word of God Ministries was offered the opportunity to acquire the school from Summer Grove Baptist Church. The name was changed from "Summer Grove Baptist Academy" to WORD OF GOD ACADEMY. The administration remains the same under the direction of Mr. Ed Hearron, the school's Headmaster.
