You prayed. Now what?

You reached out to Jesus, maybe with a few simple words, maybe with tears, maybe with doubt. Now you’re asking: “What just happened? What do I do next?”

Made for this moment

This free 7-day course was created exactly for that moment. In about 30 minutes a day, including your Bible reading, you’ll begin to understand what God has done in you, how to read the Bible for yourself, how to talk to God in prayer, who Jesus really is, what it means to live as a new creation, why the Church matters, and how to keep growing after the week is over.

You don’t need any Bible background. Most of what we read together is simple and clear, and for the parts that are harder, you’ll still grasp the main story: a God who loves you, speaks to you, and walks with you.

Is this for me?

Yes, if you’re just starting out

If you’re a brand-new believer, or someone who said “yes” to Jesus months ago but never learned what comes next, this course is for you.

A word from Fanny

One Thursday in July 1983, sitting in a dentist’s chair, I heard the Gospel for the first time and said “yes” to Jesus. Walking back out into the world, I honestly wondered: “Is this for real? Did anything actually happen?”

Four decades later, I can tell you with absolute certainty: this is more real than anything else in this world. I wrote these seven days so you don’t have to figure out your new life alone.
