Resources
Endless inventions, endless experiments, brings knowledge of motion but not of stillness . . . where is the life we have lost in living? Where is the wisdom we have lost in knowledge?
T.S. ELLIOT

Axiom Handbooks
Axiom Introduction Handbook
As you can see from the Intro E-book this booklet shares the vision and heart of Axiom, a letter of invitation, and descriptions of our first three rhythms of formation that many folks around the world have joined us in practicing. You are invited to journey with us as well!
Axiom Rhythms & Resources Handbook
This handbook is particularly nice to have in it’s spiral-binded hard copy version because, as you can tell from the Ebook version it contains many helpful resources that are good to always have on hand, for example; Christian Mantras, A contemplative-sourced prayer model and the Prayer of Examen, and explanations of our last four rhythms of formation, etc.
