How Abide Works

Abide & Anchor brings free Christian reading, personal saving and deeper Companion tools together in one quiet place. It has three clear steps: free open reading, a free personal account and optional paid Companion.

You do not need an account to read Abide & Anchor.

A free account is still free. It helps you save your place, keep notes and return to what matters to you.

Companion is separate and optional. You can request Companion Preview for one month with no credit or debit card needed and no automatic charge. If Companion is helpful, you can continue through the normal Companion path later.

Creating a free account does not start a paid Companion subscription.

Companion helps you remember the journey

Companion is not simply extra features.

It is a private place to keep a record of your walk with God.

So often we read, pray, feel encouraged and then move on. Life gets busy. The moment passes. The lesson fades.

Companion helps you slow down and remember.

You can save reflections, keep sermon and study notes, write honestly in My Walk and return to what God has been teaching you over time.

Companion helps gather your prayers, reflections, sermon notes, study notes and saved moments in one private place, so that what God is teaching you is not scattered and forgotten across days and seasons.

Not because your notes are special in themselves but because God's faithfulness is worth noticing.

Over days, months and years, Companion can become a quiet record of grace. A place where you may look back and see how the Lord has taught, corrected, carried and strengthened you along the way.

Try Companion Preview for one month

You can request a one-month Companion Preview. No credit or debit card is needed. There is no automatic charge. First create a free Abide & Anchor account. Then email us from the same email address with "Companion Preview" in the subject line.

We will turn on Preview manually for about one month so you can explore Companion's private tools for reflection, prayer, study notes and saved rhythms.

If Companion is helpful, you can choose to continue through the normal subscription path.

Because Preview is turned on manually, access may not be instant. We will respond as soon as possible.

How it works

Companion is A$4.99 per month. Overseas visitors will see pricing in their local currency at checkout. Companion gives you one private place to write, save and gather what matters over time. Journal entries, sermon notes, drill notes and personal responses are kept together so you can return to them whenever you need. Your personal entries are private to your signed-in account. They are not published or shared publicly.

Payments are completed securely on a Stripe-hosted checkout page. Stripe is certified to PCI Service Provider Level 1. Abide & Anchor does not store your full credit or debit card details. Apple Pay and Google Pay may also be available at checkout where supported. Your Companion access is linked to your Abide & Anchor account, so you can sign in across your devices and continue where you left off.
