Flourish Through Faith

The Problem

"Many believers want their faith to be practised in the ordinary week, not only believed, and are offered either sermons without practices or wellbeing courses that promise too much. This course gives you six practices of the Christian tradition to do in the real week, tells you honestly what the research does and does not show about each, and treats setting a practice aside as a good outcome."

What you'll achieve

Outcomes you can expect

State in your own words what you are for, and revise it under challenge
Sustain a contemplative practice and describe what happens within it
Judge whether a forgiveness process is safe for you to begin, and separate forgiveness from reconciliation and condoning
Protect a period of real rest, perform an act of service, and name people in your congregation who know you

The science behind it

What you'll learn

How to tell evidence from claim in any wellbeing assertion, including ours
Why what happens inside a practice matters more than how often you do it
What forgiveness is and is not, and why it begins with a safety check
Why friendships in a congregation are largely how belonging works

What's included

Everything you get

51 tools across 7 modules, 24 of them built for this course

A reader and a one-page card for every module, and private fillable workbooks for 44 of the tools
Full research references on every tool, and an audio guide for every tool

Who it's for

The right fit

Designed for For any Christian, anywhere in the world: practising or lapsed, certain or unsure, lifelong or three weeks in. Nothing here asks you to declare where you stand before you begin, and it does not teach doctrine or judge between churches. Small groups and congregations can work through it together.

Your faith is older and larger than any study of it. Flourish Through Faith is a course of practices: things a believer can actually do, week by week. There are six, one to a module: purpose and meaning, contemplative prayer and silence, forgiveness, rest, service, and belonging in a congregation. The course offers the practices with the evidence beside them, at its real strength, including the parts that disappointed us.
