Welcome! This page brings together all our CHEW Quick Start Guides—each designed for a different learning style. Whether you process best through visuals, step-by-step logic, conversation, or hands-on practice, you’ll find a guide here to help you move God’s love from your head to your heart, one honest moment at a time.

1. For Analytical Learners

You love clear steps, logic, and seeing the “why” behind the process.

CHEW Quick Start: Analytical

  • Confess: Name what you’re feeling, fearing, or facing.
  • Hear: Read a Scripture that speaks to your situation.
    Ask: What does this reveal about God’s love or character?
  • Exchange:
    • Analyze: What would change if you truly believed God’s love is for you right now?
    • Write a short statement of the shift in perspective.
  • Walk:
    • Decide on one small, practical step to take in response.
    • Track your progress in a journal or streak tracker.

Tip: Use a table or flowchart to map your CHEW process each day.

2. For Visual Learners

You learn best with images, diagrams, and color-coded cues.

CHEW Quick Start: Visual

  • Use a CHEW Diagram:
    Draw four boxes labeled Confess, Hear, Exchange, Walk. Fill each with a word, doodle, or symbol that captures your experience.
  • Color-Code Each Step:
    Assign a color to each part of CHEW and use markers or sticky notes.
  • Visual Prompts:
    Place Habit Stacking Cards or a CHEW Bingo Card in your workspace as a daily reminder.

Tip: Create a vision board or digital collage of Scriptures and CHEW moments.

3. For Auditory Learners

You process by hearing, speaking, or discussing ideas.

CHEW Quick Start: Auditory

  • Speak Each Step Aloud:
    Talk through Confess, Hear, Exchange, and Walk—either alone or with a friend.
  • Listen to Scripture:
    Use an audio Bible or record yourself reading key verses.
  • Group Discussion:
    Share your CHEW with a partner or small group, and listen to others’ insights.

Tip: Set a voice memo reminder to pause and CHEW during your day.

4. For Kinesthetic Learners

You learn by doing, moving, and hands-on practice.

CHEW Quick Start: Kinesthetic

  • Move with Each Step:
    • Confess: Write your thoughts on a notecard and toss it in a “God’s Hands” box.
    • Hear: Walk as you listen to Scripture or pray.
    • Exchange: Use clay, blocks, or objects to represent what’s changing in you.
    • Walk: Physically act out your next step (e.g., send a text of encouragement, take a gratitude walk).
  • Track with Touch:
    Use a tactile streak tracker—move a bead or stone for each CHEW completed.

Tip: Pair CHEWing with a daily routine like making coffee or stretching.

5. For Social Learners

You thrive on interaction, group learning, and shared experiences.

CHEW Quick Start: Social

  • CHEW in Community:
    • Start or join a CHEW Triad or small group.
    • Take turns leading each step and sharing responses.
  • Weekly Sharing:
    • Share a “CHEW & Tell” story at each meeting.
    • Use group challenges (like CHEW Bingo) for encouragement.
  • Encourage Accountability:
    • Pair up and check in on each other’s CHEW progress.

Tip: Use a group chat for daily CHEW prompts and encouragement.

6. For Reflective Learners

You prefer to process quietly, journal, and revisit ideas over time.

CHEW Quick Start: Reflective

  • Journal Each Step:
    • Confess: Write honestly about what’s on your heart.
    • Hear: Copy down a Scripture and note what stands out.
    • Exchange: Reflect in writing—how would God’s love change your perspective?
    • Walk: Set a small, personal goal and revisit it at the end of the week.
  • Review & Revisit:
    • Re-read past CHEWs to notice patterns and growth.
    • Use a gratitude list alongside your CHEW journal.

Tip: Set aside a quiet time each day for your CHEW practice.

Not sure where to start?
Try a style that fits you best—or mix and match! The goal is to make CHEWing on God’s love a natural, sustainable part of your life.
