ATIK · XII
Building to spec,
replicating the pattern.
A twelve-week formation and discipleship program. Helping Christians develop a mature faith.
Christian maturity
A twelve-week commitment to Christian maturity.
ATIK challenges God's people toward mature faith by helping them recognize God's reality, cultivate a theological sense of the way the world works, practice shared and cruciform reasoning, and adopt a structured practice of evaluation and discernment.
It does not simply supply more information about the faith. It seeks to help participants reorder loves, reorient attention, and respond to God from within a given situation rather than as if God were absent or irrelevant.
Individuals can work through the material on their own, while congregations and ministries can run facilitated cohorts. The framework, assessments, and improvisation engine are the same in either case.
Tavnit
The pattern is a person, not a blueprint.
- IMoses received a pattern—tavnit—for building the tabernacle. It reflected the heavenly reality toward which Israel was striving (Exodus 25:9, 40; Hebrews 8:5; 10:1). Copies and Shadows →
- IIChristians conform not to a static architectural plan, but to Jesus Christ, who did not use equality with God for his own advantage and learned obedience through suffering (Philippians 2:1–11; Hebrews 5:8).
- IIIFollowing “the way, the truth, and the life” requires improvisation: adapting to old temptations amplified in new contexts as people with new instincts capable of walking in newness of life (John 14:6; Romans 6:4).
The program
XII transformative weeks.
The program moves from sacred-social order, through four-dimensional Christian reasoning, into seven domains where allegiance takes concrete form.
Cultures reflect what their people deem sacred. Christians respond to what God has revealed, and that revelation guides how we arrange our social and individual lives.
The first week establishes activity, passivity, restraint, and complacency; patterns and principles; proleptic reasoning and transformative experience; and the dynamics of sacred-social order.Four weeks are dedicated to the Thinking Christian framework: our relationship to reality, a theological sense of how the world works, theo-logic, and disciplined inquiry through four ways of knowing.
Participants learn to reflect on themselves and the world around them with theological depth.The final seven weeks address areas drawn from Kevin N. Flatt’s Secularization, Social Order, and World History.
These categories help participants understand the varied ways Christians are to reflect God’s sacred order.The weekly rhythm
Four hours per week.
- 01Assessment. A pre- and post-program assessment, each completed in about twenty minutes.
- 02Read. Short, intense interactions with primary biblical texts and supporting sources.
- 03Meet. Ninety minutes of instructor-led interaction each week, by Zoom or in person.
- 04Practice. One activity the participant chooses and attempts to change over the next seven days.
- 05Reflect and report. A weekly half-page reflection on the training and the practice put in place.
Improvisation
A tool that makes itself unnecessary.
An AI-powered improvisation engine asks questions that prompt self-reflection, helping users develop the thought process and vision necessary for faithful improvisation.
It does not know what is happening in a user's church, marriage, or job and has no standing to offer advice. The goal is independence from the tool, not dependence on it.
Questions that deepen judgment
Challenges an approach, asks questions, suggests biblical texts that may change understanding, and highlights potential blind spots.
No advice. No directives.
It does not give advice about a specific situation, tell a user what to do, or substitute automated output for mature Christian judgment.
What it costs
One program. Two ways to continue.
Begin self-guided, continue through the platform, or bring the program to a congregation or ministry.
- Self-guided — $16.99 one-time. The ATIK assessment and twelve-lesson study guide.
- Platform — $9.99 monthly or $49.99 yearly. The app, progress tracking, recalibrations, and study plan.
- Facilitated cohorts and on-site workshops. Weekly Zoom facilitation, with optional one-, two-, or three-day workshops.
Workshop depth expands with the format: the framework in one day, selected sacred-social order domains in two, and a goodness, truth, and beauty grid for interpreting culture in three.
Cohort and workshop pricing depends on group size, format, and travel. Start a conversation →
