Abide. Grow.
Bear fruit.

Bearing Fruit is a free Christian habit tracker and spiritual formation app. It helps Christians practice 12 holy habits, including prayer, Bible study, Sabbath, Scripture memorization, and service, through guided tools and a visual garden that grows over time.

Yes. Bearing Fruit includes guided prayer tools like ACTS Prayer (Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving, Supplication) and Breath Prayer (a short prayer paced with your breathing), plus Bible reading, Bible study lessons, Lectio Divina (prayerful Scripture reading), and Scripture flashcards. The goal is not to replace Scripture or prayer, but to help you begin and return with less friction.

Bearing Fruit treats holy habits as means of grace, not as streaks or self-improvement goals. Growth is cumulative, so missing a day does not erase your progress. The app is built to help you return without shame.

Not at all. Bearing Fruit is a companion tool, not a substitute for gathering with believers, reading Scripture, or spending unhurried time with God.

As you practice, the trees in your garden grow through stages (Seed → Sapling → Tree of Life). Growth is cumulative — based on total practices, not consecutive days — so missing a day never sets you back. There are 12 trees in total, one for each Holy Habit.

Absolutely not. The 12 habits reflect the breadth of Christian formation, but you do not need to practice them all at once. Start with one or two habits, then add more over time as you are ready.

This app is for any Christian. While inspired by the Holy Habits sermon series at The Austin Stone, these practices are rooted in the shared heritage of the historic church — grace-dependent, Jesus- and Scripture-centered.

Absolutely. Bearing Fruit is designed for individual believers, and it also works well alongside small groups, sermon series, and church discipleship rhythms.

Bearing Fruit is completely free to use. After 14 days, we may invite support if it has been serving you. Giving is optional and honor-based ($3, $7, $15/month, or custom), and you are never blocked from using the app.

Just a few minutes a day is enough to start — 3 to 5, or a little longer when you have more time. Formation is slow, quiet work, not a performance. Bearing Fruit is meant to fit an ordinary day, not demand a heroic one.

Your notes and prayers stay on your device. They are never uploaded to our servers. We only collect non-identifiable usage data to improve the app. See our Privacy Policy for details.
