Daily guided prayer · concept prototype

Five minutes a day,
for the season you're actually in.

Scripture, reflection, and prayer that meets grief, dryness, gratitude, and transition where they are. Not a generic library. Humans write every session. AI only adapts emphasis and tone within what they wrote, and we always show you why you got what you got.

    What happens to it is written out in the privacy notice. Ask us to delete your entry at any time and we do it the same day.

    When a pilot cohort opens we write once, with how to begin. No spam, no streaks, no urgency. Your address is never shared or sold.

    Concept prototype. No pilot cohort is open yet and there are no partner churches. Join the list and we will write to you once, when there is something real to join.

    The daily loop

    A pause that adapts to where you are.

    Not a library to browse, not a streak to keep. One session a day, shaped to your season, with a journal prompt that quietly informs tomorrow. The whole loop is four unhurried steps.

    1

    Morning session

    A 5–15 minute guided session (scripture, reflection, prayer, journal) chosen for your season and lenses. Read or listen; the audio voice is synthetic, and we say so.

    2

    Thirty seconds of journal

    One prompt at the end. Typed or voice. Encrypted, only yours, never used to train anything. "Not today" is a first-class answer.

    3

    Season adapts

    A weekly check-in ("what season are you in?") is always authoritative. We ask openly; we never infer your soul. Tomorrow's session shifts gently.

    4

    A weekly Selah moment

    Not a streak calendar. A quiet look-back: "This month you sat longest with Psalm 42." Prose-first, never a guilt trip.

    We do not do generic content

    We meet seasons, not demographics.

    Each season has honest, pastoral sessions written for the person in it. Grief and dryness given equal dignity with gratitude. This is the personalization a content library cannot copy.

    Grief Carrying a loss Sessions that sit with you, not cheer at you. Psalms of lament, steadied by trust. Psalm 42 → Dryness When prayer feels like silence Sessions that stay gentle. Honesty about absence, without forcing a feeling. Psalm 63 → Gratitude A season of noticing Sessions that help you name it. Naming is the prayer; the feeling follows. Psalm 100 → Transition Something has shifted Sessions that steady you in the in-between. Wisdom literature for uncertain ground. Proverbs 3 → New to faith Beginning, gently Foundational sessions without jargon. The Lord’s Prayer as a lifelong teacher. Matthew 6 → Waiting In the in-between Sessions that keep you company. Habakkuk and the psalms of patient hope. Habakkuk 2 →

    The thing no incumbent does

    You should never have to guess whose theology you're getting.

    Every session declares its influences. A public theology changelog records every content decision. A "Why this session?" drawer cites the explicit signal, the scripture, the template version, and exactly what the AI personalized.

    "Why this session?". Always one tap away

    Season detected. Your explicit check-in, cited with a date
    Scripture drawn on, with translation attribution
    Tradition influences, echoed as chips
    What the AI personalized vs. the author's original
    "This does not fit my theology". One-tap flag for advisor review

    See it in your hand

    The whole product is one quiet, honest screen at a time.

    Screens from the working prototype: the scripture step, the "Why this session?" drawer that shows its work, and the season check-in that is asked openly. Never inferred.

    The weekly season check-in in the Selah app, asking which season you are in rather than inferring it
    The settle step that opens a Selah session, a single line of guidance on an otherwise empty screen
    The monthly look back in the Selah app, showing what was practised without scoring it

    Every screen honors the same commitments: humans write the words, nothing is inferred without asking, and a missed day is met with grace.

    Pricing

    Published, honest, below the category.

    Below Hallow ($69.99/yr) and Glorify/Abide, at a price that is an adoption lever. Not a brand premium. Annual-first, because this category has a January and Lent spike.
