Spiritual Life Growth

Pasadena Christian School aims to lead the student:

to know that God is the Creator and sustainer of all things. To accept His Son, Jesus Christ, as Lord and Savior, and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit as a guide for holy living
to believe that the Bible is the Word of God, foundation for our faith, and that God will speak to us through it
to turn to God in belief through prayer, listening when He speaks, and growing in personal and public prayer ministry
to grow in being doers of the Word, accepting Christian standards and ideals as a basis for choices, and becoming interested and active in a variety of Christian service opportunities
