FOREWORD ... I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. John 8:12 They shall have the light of life. As the motto of Atlantic Christian College, this statement has a dual significance. Since the school is church-related, the light has a religious connotation. It is received through belief and faith in Jesus Christ. The other meaning of the light is in relation to the college as an institution of learning. It is received through the education and development of the mind. Atlantic Christian provides both rays of the light to its students. It gives light to the soul and to the mind. The administration and faculty carry the torch of light. The glow of this torch is reflected by the stu- dents and their activities. As a history of the 1962- 63 year at Atlantic Christian College, this edition of the Pine Knot records student attainment of the light of life. PSALMS 4 7 ?
