Members can follow private discipleship goals and keep encrypted class reflections while churches provide customizable starting points without reading private progress.
Members now have a private place for personal discipleship goals and class
reflections. Churches can offer thoughtful starting points without turning
personal formation into a staff-monitoring dashboard.
Admins and teachers can create goal templates for prayer, Scripture,
community, service, rest, generosity, or another formation area. Each template
can include a suggested duration and a private progress prompt.Members decide whether to use a template. They can rename and personalize it
or create a goal of their own. Goal wording, progress, and reflections are not
shown to staff.
In the mobile app, members can record private goal check-ins, pause or resume
a goal, and mark it complete. They can also keep an encrypted general journal
entry or link a reflection to one of their own class cycles.Only the member can read, edit, or permanently delete these entries. Private
goal and journal content is separate from the shared check-ins used in a
mentor/mentee pairing.Cohort-linked journals remain unavailable until a dedicated Discipleship
cohort workflow exists.Read the Discipleship product guide to create goal
starting points and understand the privacy boundary.
