DevoteAbility is a group-based learning platform for your church or small group designed to cultivate the kind of lasting connectivity that fosters meaningful relationships and transformation. With our private social networking app, your small group can participate in time-based challenges and customized learning plans all while interacting with one another through the group's home feed. Team members can see how each person is progressing along with how the group is doing as a whole. As a member of a DevoteAbility team, you will receive the encouragement and accountability you need to move from distracted to engaged. Consistently learning and growing alongside other group members will bring you closer to God and your community. HERE’S HOW IT WORKS: 1. You or your group leader creates a team on our app or website and sends out invites to join. 2. Team members install the DevoteAbility app, create an account and accept the invitation. 3. The team leader selects one of our 40-day devotional challenges or creates a custom challenge or learning plan. 4. Team members report their activity daily and encourage one another by sharing insights and discussing life applications of what they are learning. 5. Team members create prayer requests to remind themselves to pray for specific needs, and can share these requests with the team. FEATURES: * Easy and intuitive interface * Customizable devotional goals – “Read one Bible chapter per day”, “Pray 30 minutes per day”, “Pray for a friend”, “Read Genesis 1 today”, etc. * Customizable learning plans with video, reading, task and response elements * Communication tools to help you keep in touch with your community * Accountability features to encourage engagement and participation * Prayer request features that maintain confidence while encouraging teams to pray for each other * Privacy.

God wants you and your group to be close to Him, to flourish, and be spiritually healthy. You can cut through the noise of life and help rekindle the fire of your spiritual life.
