Spiritual Life

ABC is a place where spiritual life and academic life go hand in hand and faith is part of everything we do. 

We worship, study, and pray together during Chapel, daily Scripture reading, and various ministry experiences throughout the year.

What we Believe

That Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the Living God; and, as such, is Head of His body, the Church. (Matthew 16:16; Colossians 1:18)

That He died to atone for the sins of all people and that He was raised from the dead for their justification. (Romans 4:25)

That people are justified by faith in Him according to the terms of the Gospel laid down in the New Testament. (John 3:16; Acts 2:38; Romans 10:9-10)

That the Holy Spirit lives in all Christians, gifting them for ministry, and producing the fruit of the Spirit. (I Corinthians 12:4; Galatians 5:22-23)

That the Bible is the inspired Word of God and that the New Testament is the all sufficient guide for the teaching, organization, and life of the Church. (II Timothy 3:14-16)
