Who we are

A small organization with a plain purpose.

Redeemer Forge is based in Jacksonville, Florida, and governed by a board of directors. It was formed in October 2026 to bring three pieces of work under one accountable roof.

  • Free to read, free to use

    Bible Guide and Church Family cost nothing to use. Bible Guide asks for no account, no payment and no personal details.

  • Openly Christian, never forced

    Our work is Christian work. In Redeemer Pathways we pray over the children at the start and end of every session; no child has to pray or believe to take part.

  • Plain about where we stand

    Every status on this site is stated as it is — what is live, what is being built, and what has not yet begun.
