People don’t simply reject Church teachings, they often see and process the world differently. Effective evangelization begins by understanding how someone engages with the world.

What we offer is integration opportunities, ways for people to connect the truth they may already sense with a deeper, coherent worldview as opposed to offering new revelation.

Start with understanding

We begin by attuning to the beliefs, values, and longings shaping someone’s worldview.

Engage the whole person

We speak to desires, doubts, and experiences, not just intellect or doctrine. We lovingly explore through story, curiosity, and reflection.

Create space for reframing

Through content and guide relationships, we offer new ways of seeing reality, always as invitations, never conclusions.

How we see the world

When it comes to understanding what it means to have a vision for life, and understanding the features of a sound way of seeing the world, it’s helpful to start with the large end of the funnel—the biggest thing—to identify the truest way to articulate the depth and specificity of it.

The following are ideas that we have found to be the most complete, fulfilling reflections and answers we’ve been able to find, and can be used as a rubric or back-board for your life as you evaluate your worldview.
