Root and Reason

New lessons added every month. Help your kids face hard questions about faith with confidence — built on C.S. Lewis, Tim Keller, and N.T. Wright. 7-day free trial.

Doubt doesn't wait until your kids are ready.

Root and Reason helps Christian families raise children who don't just believe — they understand why. Built on the work of C.S. Lewis, Tim Keller, N.T. Wright, G.K. Chesterton, and Augustine, every lesson gives your family the words, reasons, and confidence to face the hard questions about faith.

THREE AGE TRACKS, ONE FAMILY

Choose the right level for each child — switch anytime:

• EXPLORER (Ages 6–8) — Parent-led sessions with simple language and gentle conversation
• DISCOVERER (Ages 9–12) — Parent-led sessions with deeper concepts and bigger questions
• REASONER (Ages 13–16) — Independent reading with teen-level reasoning and reflection

Each child gets their own profile, their own progress, and their own pace — all on one device, one subscription.

WHAT'S INSIDE EACH 5-MINUTE LESSON

• A clear key idea your child can remember
• A scripture anchor (ESV)
• Family discussion questions written for real conversations
• A guided prayer specific to that lesson
• Hidden parent notes — practical, book-recommending, never preachy
• AI tools to generate fresh discussion questions or rewrite the lesson for your child's age
• Read-aloud mode for car rides and bedtime
• Quiz to reinforce the key idea
• Streaks, badges, and a daily verse to build the habit

BUILT FOR REAL FAMILIES

Five minutes at dinner. Ten minutes at bedtime. The drive home from school. Root & Reason fits the moments you already have — not the ones you wish you had.

WHAT FAMILIES ARE SAYING

"Finally, something that treats my teenager like a thinker, not a child."

"We do one session at dinner every night. It's become our family's favorite five minutes."

"My 10-year-old now answers his friends' questions about faith with confidence."
