Pop sensation Justin Bieber has cleared his schedule to study the Bible with his pastor for the next two weeks in Palm Springs, California, as he wants to learn how to spread the word of God.
The 20-year-old star was arrested for DUI (Driving Under the Influence) in Miami earlier this year and also charged with vandalising his former neighbour's home with eggs in Calabasas, California.
Bieber is staying at the Rancho Mirage close to Palm Springs, California for two weeks with his pastor, as he wants to firmly reconnect with his religious beliefs, reported TMZ online.
A source said the 'Baby' hitmaker, who recently split from his on-again, off-again girlfriend Selena Gomez, is on a "mission" to learn how to spread the word of God and has exiled himself from his friends, alcohol and marijuana for the remainder of November.
The Canadian singer - who identifies himself as a Christian - was spotted outside the luxurious resort with the book 'Occupy All Streets,' which teaches how to resist bad temptations.
Bieber has surrounded himself with spiritual mentors in recent months, including pastor Carl Lentz of Hillsong New York City, who previously insisted he is a 'good kid' despite his bad behaviour.
The singer also frequently attended pastor Judah Smith's Bible study at the City Church in Los Angeles with the 'Heart Wants What It Wants' hitmaker Selena, 22, over the summer.
