THE FRAMEWORK
The SoulShaping® Experience
The SoulShaping® Experience is a
church-wide immersion in spiritual renewal.
“The SoulShaping® Experience” walks you through a five-stage process:
The SoulShaping® Experience:
For Small Groups
The SoulShaping® Experience is not “just another program.” The SoulShaping® Experience provides the opportunity to ignite a movement of Christian spiritual vitality in your life, your group, and your congregation or organization.
The Good News of abundant life in Jesus Christ spreads as Jesus’ followers experience the transforming power of spiritual vitality and share what they’ve experienced with others who share with others.
The SoulShaping® Experience for Small Groups provides resources for a ten-week season of accelerated spiritual growth. We define a small group as up to 15 people. The package includes:
Diagnose your spiritual condition.
Develop your personal vision for your spiritual vitality.
Discover God’s pathways for spiritual vitality.
Discern your personal plan for spiritual vitality
Devote yourself to your spiritual vitality
The SoulShaping® Experience for Small Groups package is a “turnkey” resource that anyone can easily facilitate. The purchase of the package includes an access code that licenses the group facilitator to use the videos and to access, print, and/or distribute up to 15 copies of the Weekly Discussion Guides.
Special access is granted to use these materials congregation-wide when your congregation (or organization) registers for The SoulShaping® Experience for Congregations. Contact Lorica Ministries directly for more information.

11 Sermon manuscripts based on the videos (one additional “Pre-Series” sermon prepares the congregation for the SoulShaping® Experience).
A Preaching plan and matrix for implementation of the entire process
Website Tiered pricing based on church size
We provide a resource kit for “The SoulShaping® Experience for Congregations” that includes the Pastors Resources (described above) as well as congregation-wide access to “The SoulShaping® Experience for Small Groups” (also described above). The tiered pricing is based on providing full access for a congregation to the small group videos and discussion guides. Obviously the larger the congregation, the greater the potential for usage. Note, the access code is for period of time the congregation is actively engaged in “The SoulShaping® Experience.”
