You want to take your faith seriously. But it can be difficult to know where to begin, what to read or how to make prayer and study part of ordinary life. FaithWave helps you begin — and keep going.

The FaithWave difference

Not simply inspiration. Formation.

FaithWave is for Christians who want more than disconnected content or a passing thought for the day. It brings Scripture, prayer and Christian thought together, helping you understand the faith and live it more deliberately.

01

Substance, made accessible

Encounter important Christian writing without reducing it to slogans — and without already knowing where to begin.

02

Across time and traditions

Find relevant voices from the early Church, the medieval world, the Reformation and beyond, with their agreements and differences treated honestly.

03

Thought and devotion together

Bring learning back into the life of prayer, so that a deeper understanding of Christianity strengthens a living and serious faith.

One app. A living tradition.

Go deeper without getting lost.

01

Classic prayer library

Find words when your own words fail.

Whether you need guidance, strength, thanksgiving or simply help knowing how to pray, FaithWave gives you access to prayers drawn from across Christian history. Tell the Prayer Finder what is on your heart, and it will lead you to something fitting from the library.

What would you like to pray about?

“I need courage for a difficult decision.”

Daily devotionals

A thoughtful rhythm for every day.

When you are unsure what to read or struggle to maintain a regular devotional life, FaithWave gives you a clear place to begin. Each day brings together Scripture, a substantial passage from a Christian writer and a prayer connected by a common theme.

Scripture commentary

Understand difficult passages more easily.

When Scripture is difficult or unfamiliar, select a verse and consult commentators from different centuries and traditions. Choose the voices you want to hear, turn off those you do not, and compare their explanations without losing your place.

John 1:1

“In the beginning was the Word…”

What does it mean that the Word was “in the beginning”?

Two voices from different traditions on this verse:

The Word by whom all things were made took on our humanity, that dwelling among us He might renew it from within.

Augustine · Early Church

In the beginning the Word already was — co-eternal with the Father and the true agent of creation.

John Calvin · Reformation

Both affirm the Word’s eternity; Augustine emphasises the renewal it brings, Calvin the divine agency in creation.
