GitHub Your Faith
The person who documents the movement writes the truth.
Your worldview exists in your head. Until you make it legible to others, you're always at a disadvantage to people who think worse but communicate better.
I realized this during a conversation with my friend Tim about the power of documentation in movement building. The person willing to write down what a movement believes becomes the default source of truth. Everyone else defers to that documentation unless they actively correct it.
This applies to your personal faith operating system.
Most Christians can't articulate what they actually believe beyond surface-level talking points. They've never forced themselves to crystallize their theology, their approach to discernment, their framework for making decisions. When opportunities arise that require ideological clarity, they lose to people who can explain their thinking systematically.
GitHub solves this perfectly. Version control for belief systems. Your worldview becomes queryable by AI, updatable as you grow, and transparent to potential collaborators who need to assess alignment quickly.
I'm calling mine "Faith Walk OS" because it documents my rules for how I see everything and do everything. Not random essays scattered across platforms, but a structured repository that captures my complete approach to following Christ.
The practical benefits are immediate. When someone asks what I believe about any topic, they can query my worldview directly instead of scheduling conversations. When I evolve on an issue, the change is tracked with reasoning. When smart people want to challenge my thinking, they have comprehensive material to engage with rather than guessing from fragments.
The strategic benefit is profound. Most denominational fragmentation happens because people disagree on secondary issues without clear frameworks for resolving disputes. An open-source approach to worldview development creates accountability and enables rapid alignment between believers who share foundational commitments.
This isn't about replacing Scripture or church authority. It's about making your personal application of unchanging truth accessible to others who might benefit from your thinking or contribute to your growth.
Stop assuming your expertise is obvious. The patterns you see, the discernment you've developed, the frameworks that guide your decisions—none of this helps the body of Christ if it stays locked in your head.
Document your worldview before someone else defines what you believe for you. Start with voice recordings and AI transcription. Ask yourself what questions a smart person would have about your faith. Record your answers. Organize the transcripts into a private repository.
Share selectively with people who need to understand how you think. Most should stay private anyway. But having comprehensive documentation of your approach to following Christ demonstrates intellectual rigor to anyone considering whether to trust you with significant spiritual responsibility.
The alternative is letting social media algorithms assemble your worldview through random fragments that create inconsistency and confusion. Most Christians today have Frankenstein worldviews—bits and pieces of contradictory ideas that feel true in isolation but create chaos when you try to live by them.
Your mind becomes a junkyard when you let others curate your reality instead of God.
Build your worldview intentionally around unchanging truth, or watch it get assembled algorithmically by people who profit from your spiritual confusion.
The kingdom needs believers who can think systematically and communicate clearly. Your documented worldview might be exactly what someone needs to understand how faith works in practice.
