About FaithWave
Our Mission
FaithWave exists to help people grow in faith and understanding by connecting them with the enduring wisdom of the Christian tradition.
Our Story
- FaithWave launches in 2025 as a digital platform dedicated to bringing together prayer, theology, scripture, and Christian classics in one accessible and carefully curated place. We believe technology, when used well, can serve faith rather than distract from it. FaithWave aims to make the best of Christian learning and devotion available to everyone, wherever they are.
- We affirm the Nicene Creed as our statement of faith and draw on the whole breadth of the Christian inheritance—Eastern and Western, Catholic and Protestant, ancient and modern—recognising the deep unity that underlies these traditions while acknowledging their genuine differences.
- FaithWave’s purpose is not to replace the life of the Church but to strengthen it: to make prayer, scripture, and historic Christian writing more approachable, and to help users bring what they encounter digitally into their daily and communal life.
- The project is built for both sustainability and openness. Subscription income supports the creation of new content and ongoing development, but no one is excluded for financial reasons. Those unable to afford membership are welcome to contact us to arrange access.
- Our continuing goal is to refine existing features, develop new ones, and ensure FaithWave remains a serious, enriching, and reliable resource for those seeking to deepen their faith and understanding.
Personal Message
I have been fortunate enough to have had some wonderful teachers. The best of them have opened up new ways of seeing, whole new worlds, often through teaching on a great work of literature. Many of these texts, including some which have been most vital to me, I would not have read without their prompting.
It is scarcely credible that I, as a loutish seventeen-year-old, would have read through the synoptic Gospels with minute attention to detail, pausing to contemplate the different views of a variety of scholars. And yet just this, in one of those classrooms that is always slightly too warm, remains one of the most valuable things I have done. Simply seeing on my shelf the red NRSV Bible we used can summon the hot and happy atmosphere of that room.
I believe it is important to continue learning throughout life, even if it is not always easy once you have left formal education behind. My own faith journey has sometimes followed a tangled course, but the writing of Christian authors has been of unceasing value. Writers like Soren Kierkegaard, Herbert McCabe, C.S. Lewis, Gerard Manley Hopkins and St. Athanasius have helped me to think better, increase in sensitivity, and to read scripture and pray more often and more fruitfully.
This is, in fact, common. Many people we speak to have had similar experiences and recognise their value, but do not—myself included—engage with the best of Christian thought and writing as much as they would like. FaithWave was founded in the hope of solving our problem.
