The Character Course brings together the most up-to-date psychology with ancient biblical wisdom. In eight sessions, it covers key themes of Christian discipleship: learning, hope, love, forgiveness, gratitude, humour, persistence and curiosity. This could be used in your church or small group.

The link above takes you to the Character Course website which has everything you need to take part in the course. The course is completely free to download. It’s designed for small groups, but you can complete it however you like: alone or in a group, live or online. It works best when you share the journey with others. Each session has a short video to watch, a bible passage to ponder and a practice to try out.

The Character Course was created by Roger, a psychologist working at the University of Lincoln, and Rick, a filmmaker and director of Blink Creative.
