Who is Go Forth Carolina?
We are a Stoa homeschool speech and debate club in Jacksonville, NC whose namesake comes from the inspirational verse found in the book of Matthew.
Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always to the close of the age. (Matthew 28:19-20)
Our club's goal is to enhance students' critical thinking and communication skills through the supportive and competitive environment of Team Policy debate and a variety of Speech events. Our prayer is that the Lord will be glorified and His kingdom advanced as our students become better equipped to share the gospel with others in a winsome way.
