The most important step for your faith is the next one. Follow Through is a relational discipleship app that helps students take next steps after making a big faith decision. Built for young people who are ready to grow, whether they are new to the faith, learning to share the gospel, or exploring a specific call to ministry. Whether you made a decision at a camp, youth event, in your local church, or in your own bedroom, this app helps you move from a single moment into a lifetime of daily commitment. If you’ve said “yes” to Jesus, Follow Through helps you keep saying it every day after. App features: TRACKS: Provides next steps to middle school and high school students saying “yes” to Jesus. Featured tracks include deciding to follow Jesus for the first time, recommitting your life to Jesus, pursuing a life of Kingdom Work by using your gifts and talents to point others to Jesus, and those who feel called to a career in ministry. Church admins can also create custom tracks from the online content builder. REPS & CHALLENGES: Real, actionable challenges that will put your decision in motion and provide hands-on opportunities to practice your faith in your everyday life. TELL IT: Learn how to boldly talk about what God has done in your life. The "Tell It" features equip you with the tools, practice, and confidence you need for sharing your faith or story with friends, family, and your community. RESOURCES: Resources help you to learn more about your faith, your decisions, and yourself through curated things you'll read, listen to, and watch. RELATIONSHIPS: You are not alone. Invite a trusted mentor, like a parent or small group leader, to walk alongside you while you progress in this app. JOURNALS: Reflect on your progress in real time as you work through the steps. Choose whether you want to share those updates with your mentor. COMMUNITY: Start a Cheering Section by sharing your personal link with others outside of the app, so they can see your progress and cheer you on. A faith that’s not moving is stuck, which is why the most important step for your faith will always be the next one.
