The goal of The Faith-ing Project is to enrich your spiritual life.   Our hope is that this  might be a gymnasium for the soul; a library for the spirit; and a toy store for the psyche.

On this page, you can expect to find information about specific spiritual exercises.  If you are interested in more general information about building your spiritual practice, click here.

An Update

The reception to the Faith-ing Project Guides has been wonderful.  At this time, we are going to begin to move many of the features which had been paid content into the free area.  This will be a work in progress.  To be honest, it is a bit of an act of faith. The desire has never been to turn this place into a career.  At this stage, it is paying for itself.  My hopes for the future is that it funds increased quality in quality of content through steps like paying for better equipment to work with, providing for a marketing budget, and providing for some expert support with the technical side of things.

One of the first moves is audio files.  Effectively immediately, all audio meditations will be available to all users.  You can find these here.
