A fresh approach, holistic tools, and time-honoured resources to help you grow in Christ-likeness—and help the church come together—through intentional Christian spiritual formation

The Orange Theory is built on the concept of blending two influential forces—home and church—to foster vibrant, holistic faith in the next generation. Represented by the colour red, the home symbolizes the love, warmth, and personal investment parents and caregivers bring to a child’s faith journey. The church, symbolized by yellow, provides the light of wisdom, guidance, and communal support through teachings and relationships with mentors and peers. When combined, these two colors create orange, a dynamic partnership where church and home work together to create a cohesive, impactful faith experience. This approach encourages church leaders to align with parents as primary faith influencers, equipping them to reinforce biblical values and support spiritual growth at home. By leveraging both environments, the Orange Theory aims to build resilient, relational, and service-oriented faith in children and youth.
