Frequently Asked Questions
Below are a few common questions about this journey, how it works, and what it is (and isn’t).
What is this project?
This project offers a guided journey into the deeper patterns shaping your inner life — your motivations, longings, and responses to the world around you. Rather than offering surface-level advice, it invites reflection, honesty, and the possibility of real change rooted in grace.
How does it work?
The journey uses reflective prompts designed to surface underlying motivations rather than outward behaviors. Over time, these patterns tend to cluster around distinct themes — each with its own strengths, blind spots, and longings. Your results highlight the pattern that most consistently resonates with your inner experience, along with related tendencies that often emerge during seasons of stress or growth.
Is this a personality test?
Not in the traditional sense. This is not about categorizing you, predicting your behavior, or assigning you a fixed identity. Instead, it is a reflective tool designed to help you recognize recurring inner patterns — the motivations, reactions, and longings that quietly shape how you experience the world. Many people already sense these patterns in themselves but struggle to name them clearly. The goal is not to label you, but to offer language and perspective that can lead to greater self-understanding, compassion, and freedom. Awareness is simply the beginning of the journey — not its destination.
Will this put me in a box?
No. The goal is not to limit you, but to give language to patterns so they can be understood — and ultimately transformed. Growth, change, and freedom are assumed, not denied.
Do I have to be Christian for this to be meaningful?
No. While the journey is shaped by a Christian understanding of grace and redemption, it is offered as an invitation, not a requirement. Many people find value in the reflection regardless of their background.
How are the results and journey book free — and why is there a bookstore?
Your personal results and journey book are always free. There is no paywall on insight, reflection, or access to your own story. This is made possible through the generosity of supporters who believe this work should remain open and accessible — especially for those who may not otherwise be able to afford it. The bookstore exists to support the ongoing work behind the scenes, including writing, development, hosting, and long-term sustainability. Some people choose to explore additional books or support the project financially so that the core experience can continue to be offered freely to everyone. All purchases and donations are entirely optional. The journey itself is never withheld.
What is this not?
This is not therapy, diagnosis, or spiritual direction. It is a reflective tool meant to complement — not replace — community, wisdom, and personal growth.
