Progress Project

The Progress Project Course deepens our personal relationship with God by creating a space to share our inner lives with each other and to support each other in spiritual goal setting. We take our name from an initiative that was developed by Urantia Book readers as a network of small groups focused on personal spiritual growth. This is the third time we are offering this course on the UUI platform.

During the course, we will meet for 90 minutes each week in class, focusing on the arc of spiritual growth from inner connection to outer expression. Each class period will include time for worshipful communion, instruction from Angie and Aprilhelen, and breakout groups for Urantia Book study and personal reflection on the week’s theme.

In addition, all students will be expected to join a Triad: a group of three that meets outside of class to support and accompany each other in their mutual desire for personal spiritual progress. These meetings are an additional 90 minutes per week and include worshipful communion, study, sharing of your inner life, and setting spiritual goals.

Lastly, all students will be asked to develop a personal, everyday practice of communion with God. We’ll invite you to journal about your experience as you go.

The Progress Project course is a deep-dive! You’re making a real commitment – to God, to yourself, to your Triad, and to your peers. Congratulations on embarking on such a thrilling adventure!
