Social activity at Atlanta Bible College is planned to provide
for fellowship needs. The Social Activities Board plans social
activities of various kinds throughout the year, including picnics,
parties, skiing trips, and banquets. An active sports program is
maintained through basketball, volleyball, and various individual
sports. Fellowship gatherings also are sponsored by the faculty in
their homes.
College gospel teams minister to churches and conferences as the
college program permits. Trip expenses are met by freewill offerings
and will remain on a faith basis as the Lord provides. This is an
important way for the college to keep in spiritual contact with the
churches, and serving on gospel teams is a vital help in Christian
growth and service. M135 is offered for credit.
ABC believes that the development of a student's spiritual life is
vital. Graduation from ABC is based upon not only academic
preparation, but also spiritual preparation for ministry. It is not
possible to succeed in ministry without adequate spiritual
preparation. Students are urged to establish a quiet time of
unhurried Bible reading, prayer, and fellowship with God.
Small discipling groups of students and staff meet weekly to
encourage each other and hold each other accountable for spiritual
growth. The focus will be prayer, accountability, study and service
(P.A.S.S.). Staff and students are to pray for each other, hold each
other accountable to Christian values, study the Word, and review
each other's service in ministry and how that may be enhanced.
