Tools and Resources

On this page you can find some of our most commonly used tools and resources we use in our work on Core, which we offer for you for free.

1. Machine Efficiency vs. Ascesis

Our culture—including most modern self-help—treats the human person as a machine to be optimised: tuned, adjusted, and engineered for greater output.

This is a 7-Day Discernment of the Heart for Modern Men to introduce the Christian model of ascesis as an alternative to machine effiency.

2. Stewardship in Work

We are taught to think that the purpose of work is about income or self realisation. In the long term, this approach deprives men of a sense of meaning and joy in their work.

The Christian tradition teaches something far more demanding—and far more beautiful through the image of stewardship.

2. Buddy Call Working Procedure

The Daily Buddy call is a powerful tool to keep you accountable for moving towards your goals.

Our buddy call working procedure provides you with a structure to implement buddy calls with a friend.

3. Christian Men’s Life Assessment

This assessment is designed to help you to take a snapshot of your current situation and see how well you are performing in three areas of your life as a man.

4. Stagnation or Growth?

The focus of this exercise is to create clarity of the difference of a proactive mindset to moving your life forward compared to a complacent mindset of keeping things at status quo.

5. Your Perfect Day

Creating a clear vision for the future starts with thinking about – what do you actually want?

Your Perfect Day is an easy introductory exercise to get you in the right frame of mind and start forming your vision.
