Frequently Asked Questions

  • Will I be placed into a cohort?

    No, you will not be placed into a cohort of other individuals walking through The Journey, but you are welcome to start a small group at your church using the Journey or to connect online with other participants in The Journey.

  • Will we be meeting in person?

    The Journey is a self-paced, online program that will not involve any in-person meetings. If you would like, feel free to gather with others to walk through The Journey to process your life with God.

  • How can I find a spiritual director?

    We strongly recommend you find a spiritual director who has been trained at the Institute for Spiritual Formation (ISF), which created The Journey. ISF-trained spiritual directors will be very familiar with the content of The Journey, and so well-suited to help you process what you are hearing and experiencing. One of the easiest ways to find an ISF-trained spiritual director is by looking at the directory of the Evangelical Spiritual Directors Association (ESDA/Grafted Life Ministries): https://www.graftedlife.org/spiritual-direction/find

  • Are there any additional fees associated with The Journey?

    There are no additional fees to enroll in The Journey. However, depending on your location, applicable sales tax may be added. If so, it will be calculated and clearly shown during checkout.
