Ethos- Forward Community

"Ethos" is a community of people united by the simple vision to Release the Past, Seize the Day, and Press Forward toward a better overall self. As the virtual "Foyer" for The Forward Church Movement, "Ethos" serves as a place for people from all walks of life to connect and begin seeking a Brighter Way, a Perfect Truth, and a flat out Better Life.

At Forward, we seek to provide a myriad of venues- both online and in the real world- that can encourage and support individuals who are committed to moving forward in the five facet of life: Spirituality, Relationships, Health, Finances, and Personal Development. The "Ethos" app serves as our central gathering space, where we can engage with each other in a social venue that is free from the negativity of other social platforms.

In the "Ethos" app, you will also find a link to our "Forward Life Calendar", packed with events throughout Northeast Ohio that each focus on impacting a specific domain of a person's life. From things as simple as a public cookout in the park (Relational Domain) or 7 on 7 flag football (Health Domain), to deeper things such as Bible Studies (Spiritual Domain) or Conflict Resolution Courses (Personal Development Domain). Catch the Vision of an externally focused life and join a community of Real People Connecting in Real Life for Real Change. There are no judgments at Forward, so simply get in where you fit in and engage in events and conversation as you feel comfortable.

But a Vision Without a Plan is just a Hallucination. So at Forward, we have helped hundreds of people tangibly move forward in every facet of their lives through something we call "The Forward Life Plan". Looking at each of the five areas of a person's life, our "Catalysts" at Forward can design a personalized plan for what it looks like for that particular individual to move forward, if they so choose. We will even provide financial assistance and a Forward Life Advocate to walk out the journey. There is never any charge for any service Forward provides.

The Forward Life Plan was designed by the leaders of "The Forward Church" in Cleveland, OH in 2012. But don't allow the word "Church" to scare you away. If you're not into the whole "religion" thing, rest assured... neither are we; at least not in the traditional sense of the word. While Forward is primarily a community of people who would call themselves "believers", we are committed to creating a culture that is unlike anything the world has seen in regards to "Church".

We Value..,

- Relationships Over Religion
- Progress Over Perfection
- Engagement Over Evangelism
- Servanthood Over Selfishness
- Freedom Over Phoniness

Once we have an accurate picture of where we are at in life, we can then begin the journey toward all that we wish to be. No judgments, no lofty titles or self righteous attitudes; because at the end of the day, we are ALL just people trying to move forward in this crazy world. Let the "Ethos" app be your first step to engaging with others in this whole new way of life, and propelling each and every facet of your life...Forward.
