The 4D Cycle

A Framework for Building Redemptive Tech

Are you passionate to practice a biblically-based way of building technology in community?

The four-week program will be punctuated by a weekly meetup (in your city or online) where we unpack the relevant stage of the 4D cycle.

Each element of teaching will be accompanied by tools to help you and your team build a redemptive solution together.

FAQ

Is this in-person or online?

Both! As you sign-up for FaithTech Create, you'll get the option to join in your city (if you are located close to a FaithTech Community), or online. Both options will involve the same teaching and tools to help you get from problem to prototype within 4 weeks. Once you've signed up, you will be able to find out exactly which day the weekly meet-up will be for the option you selected. And of course they'll be recorded for you to review after the event!

I'm in! What's the time commitment?

Each element of the 4D cycle will include around 1 hour of teaching (online or in-person in your city), and time for workshopping the relevant tool for the challenge you'd like to solve (around 1 hour more). Between the weekly sessions, you will want to engage with your team and continue to build, and this will vary dependent on your role in the team, and the stage of the cycle you are completing. We estimate between 2 and 5 hours per week on these elements.

What is the cost?

The costs differ slightly between the in-person option and the online option. In-person gatherings will involve venues and food, so we simply ask for a contribution toward that. And, of course...swag for the event too!

What challenges will we work on?

We have a number of challenge options. There will be local challenges, selected by the leadership team, and offered by the community, as well as partner challenges (see below for current partners); and the option to pitch a challenge yourself! You'll see more information on these challenges over the next month, so keep checking back!

When can I form a team?

You can form a team before the event if you have friends and colleagues who want to get involved, or you can join a team during week one, when you've decided which challenge you'd like to work on.

What happens at the weekly meet-up?

At the weekly meet-up there will be teaching on the specific development stage for your project, and you'll receive tools to use to help get from one stage to the next. There'll also be opportunities to share progress and help find solutions with the rest of the group. In the time between the weekly meet-ups, your team can work to a pace and rhythm that suits you.

What happens after the event?

There are a number of options following the event. FaithTech is focussed on community, so we always hope that your connection with the team and the city grow from here. There will be options to continue your project, explore hand-off options, or even get startup training from a partner organization.

The Apologist Project

How might we leverage generative AI to answer common objections to Christianity by training on works authored by classical and contemporary Christian apologists, so that more people with doubts about faith might be won for Christ?

Buyer Resist

How might we continue to engineer AI-chat dialogue and automating the interception process for people trying to buy sex online, so that they can receive redemptive help at their point of addiction?

AO Lab

How might we build tools to help all Christians love and live out the Bible by developing an interactive web platform to make embedding content in the Bible possible so that it can be placed in any online location?

Prescience Labs

How might we create a way of analyzing text live on-screen during bible translation online workgroup calls, so that translators can be immersed in the text whilst interacting with each other?
