We partner with churches, ministries, and faith organizations to integrate discipleship into every aspect of their mission. We are driven by a deep desire to strengthen Christ’s bride—the Church in all its forms. Our goal is to provide modern tools and methods that equip both disciples and the ministries that train and send them.
We empower the global Church to fulfill the Great Commission through authentic biblical discipleship. Rather than replicating the God-honoring work of those who came before us, we recognize their contributions and are blessed to build upon their foundation. Our mission is to equip them with the tools and guidance they need to disciple with confidence.
We are committed to ensuring that everything we do fosters authentic conversion through meaningful interpersonal relationships. We are driven to facilitate intentional spiritual growth while equipping shepherds to actively engage and guide their sheep.
The name Sandals reflects our walk in discipleship, following Christ’s command to go and make disciples with faith in God’s provision. Throughout Scripture, sandals symbolize being sent, God’s sustaining care, the sealing of redemption, and Christ’s unmatched authority, calling us to walk humbly in His footsteps.
The book
The 8 Facets of Spiritual Maturity
Eight facets of a Christ-formed life, drawn from the first church in Acts 2 and anchored to Scripture on every page. The book is the foundation; the Sandals app and the Shepherding Portal put it into daily practice.
Engage in authentic worship practices to connect deeply with God's presence.
Grow in understanding and intimacy with Jesus, allowing Him to transform your life.
Follow biblical teachings as a guide for living faithfully and righteously.
Maintain an ongoing dialogue with God through prayer, seeking His guidance and strength.
Foster a relationship with the Holy Spirit to empower spiritual growth and maturity.
Share your faith journey and Christ’s message authentically with others.
Embrace servant leadership by supporting and uplifting fellow believers.
Strive for holiness as a reflection of God's character, separating from worldly influences.
A daily practice companion built around the same eight facets as the book. Daily guided prayer, a full Bible with facet highlighting, the Spiritual Maturity Assessment, the complete growth-objective curriculum, witness tools, and chat for discipleship pairs and small groups. One account on iPhone, iPad, Android, and the web.
A web dashboard for pastors, elders, and ministry leaders. See the congregation's combined maturity landscape across the eight facets, app activity, groups, and the prayer requests members choose to share. Summary information only: leaders never see chats or a member's Bible history.
A workbook series with one volume per facet, the free online Spiritual Maturity Assessment, a discipleship-pair quick reference, and a leader's guide. We also offer onboarding and training for your ministry team, and speaking and coaching for leaders.
Equip your ministry with the tools to foster authentic spiritual growth, deepen community, and empower leaders. Join a movement that integrates biblical discipleship with cutting-edge technology.
