Devotional Life
Christians are disciples of Jesus Christ. There is, therefore, a strong emphasis at African Bible College on personal discipline - both spiritual and physical. In order to lead its student body into a positive, dedicated, mature and Spirit-controlled life, the following meetings are designed to accomplish this aim.

ABC Capel Chapel
Devotional messages, special lectures, and missionary challenges are often used by the Holy Spirit as links in the chain of guidance for future service. Attendance is required of every student.

Prayer
Prayer is essential for the deepening of the spiritual life of the individual and for the success and growth of the kingdom of God. Prayer meetings, private prayer, and a semester day of prayer contribute to this end.

Special Conferences
Time is set aside on a regular basis whereby students may benefit from special conferences and retreats held on the African Bible Campus.
