What individual users are saying about Foundations21 |

'As we become increasingly familiar with the potential of Internet-based learning and explore new ways to do "discipleship", it is inevitable that the two will meet. Foundations21 is a web- and DVD-based resource that makes those introductions creatively. 'It offers a seemingly exhaustive choice of well-researched, in-depth study material - and an online community to share it with. It provides a multimedia treasure chest for individual users and a virtual home group for those who want to learn with others: less of a study aid, more of a way of life with like-minded co-disciples. 'Twelve virtual rooms lead community members through different areas of discipleship training by choice and through one of the four Gospel "pathways" according to personal learning style. Writer Adrian Plass introduces the themes, there are opportunities for globally-focused prayer and there are contributions from church leaders, movers and shakers from across the evangelical tradition. 'It's a stunning resource.' Reviewed by Wendy Bray in the April 2007 edition of Christianity magazine. =============================== 'I found Foundations21 engaging, accessible and really well put together, with a good range of material. There is a wealth of things to whet the appetite both conceptually and in detail. It's all really helpful and encouraging and will be very useful indeed both for new disciples and for Christians wanting a refresher and to go deeper. In particular, the Power of Love Model - at the heart of the John Pathway - will be invaluable for a new disciple. It's simple, effective and profound.'
=============================== 'I work full-time, run a church magazine and have a busy home life so don't get as much time to study as I would like. Foundations21 has allowed me to study at my own pace and level within an easy-to-follow, interesting package. It has also provided me with some exciting new ideas to use for my own personal worship and prayer.' =============================== 'I am coming up to the end of the second year working on this material and although pace and frequency change from month to month its still as fresh and compelling as it always was.' =============================== 'Our individual Christian journeys take twists and turns throughout our lives and each is special and unique. Sometimes the accompanying footprints seem not to be there. Foundations21 crossed my path in my first year of retirement and rejuvenated my journey. Its paths took me to new and exciting places; I learned about my faith and prayer in challenging invigorating ways and was able to stop and rest and take in the wonderful views as and when I wanted to, sometimes using the encouragement of fellow travellers. I would recommend Foundations21 to anyone whatever their age. There is something there for all of us and this programme has now become part of my everyday life as a Christian.' Gill, a Foundations21 user =============================== 'F21 is a tremendous resource for those who want to develop their relationship with Jesus.'
=============================== =============================== 'I'm thoroughly enjoying the F21 course - I love the flexibility of being able to do it at a time that suits me. I find it is making me think hard about the importance of my faith in my life and it is giving me the opportunity to clarify what being a Christian in the 21st century really means and how I can take this forward on a day to day basis.'
=============================== 'Foundations21 is fascinating - an intriguing way of studying the Bible and applying what you learn to life. If there's a problem it's that there is too much interesting material to get through in a short time - makes you want your Bible study time to go on and on! For people like me with a job and family, it's a great way of spending enjoyable time in prayer, study and meditation.'
=============================== 'I would just like to say that the quality of the materials in Foundations21 is really great, like all BRF products...'
