Finding a faith community is one of the most personal decisions someone can make — but the tools for finding one look like restaurant review sites. Star ratings flatten what should be a conversation about belief, belonging, and the kind of community a seeker is hoping to find.

Church leaders, meanwhile, have no good way to introduce themselves to seekers who would actually thrive in their congregation — and they pay for marketing tools built for businesses, not faith communities.

A values-first matching model. Seekers describe what they're looking for in their own words — denomination, worship style, theological emphasis, community life, what they want for their kids. Churches describe themselves the same way.

No public ratings. No reviews. Private outreach, verified directory, free participation for churches. Revenue from optional premium tools for faith leaders — not from ad-targeting their members.

Status: Concept · Pre-Design

Audience: Faith communities and seekers (US first; English-language)

Position in portfolio: Adjacent to Our Neighbors — both built on belonging-rather-than-rating mechanics. Pattern reuse is intentional.

Next decision: Define the values-matching schema with input from 5 pastors and 5 active seekers before any design work begins.

· Not a church review site. No Yelp-for-churches.

· Not a streaming or content platform. Sermon archives belong on the church's own site.

· Not a social network. No feeds, no follows, no engagement metrics shown to members.

· Not denomination-specific. The matching model is built to surface fit across denominations, including non-denominational fellowships.
