Where the observed choices sit

8 areas not reviewed yet

Works against: a choice subverts the person’s agency. Respects: it respects people and safeguards. Restores: a practice restores at a cost freely borne by the builder. Price, Christian branding or a free tier alone do not place an area. How we review.

The ten principle questions For your own design review

These questions guide discernment; they are not ten scores for this app.

Keep the Word distinct, and teach it truly
Can a reader always tell Scripture from our words, and our words from a machine’s?
Never speak for God
Would we put our own name under this sentence, or are we borrowing God’s?
Design for the most vulnerable first
Who is the most vulnerable person likely to use this today, and what will they see?
Welcome before you ask, and guard what is told in confidence
If a friend read everything we keep about this person, would the person be glad?
Feed the flock, not on it
Does this serve growth in faith, or only the usage numbers?
Make room for rest, and say when it is enough
Where does our product stop, and does it ever tell someone they have done enough?
Send people to God and to one another
When someone closes what we built, are they closer to God and to other people?
Plant and water; leave the growth to God
What would we stop measuring if we believed growth is God’s?
Make it well, as an offering
Would we offer this to God as it is, and could the person with the least sight, time or reading ease use it?
Hold it with joy and trembling, before God and others
Who outside the team holds us to account, and who prays for the people who use this?

Use this in your own work

Start with the observed choice, then ask how your own implementation serves people. The evidence is a design example, rather than an app-wide recommendation.
