FDCM is a great program for traditional Anglican-Episcopalian adult learners. I totally enjoyed the internet pilot version of "History of Christianity," and it made me to want to learn more. I also appreciate that FDCM courses are now offered entirely on the internet ,since I do not have the schedule flexibility to attend face-to-face classes.

Personally, I love everything about the FDCM program. The weekly assignments are just right for me. Kathryn is a wonderful mentor with her profound caring for her students... . Our workbook assignments that spiritually guide us, and the history texts are both very enjoyable reading.... I look forward to continuing this new journey into my spiritual life during Year Two. --Lyn Doran, Massachusetts
I will be beginning my third year with FDCM this fall, and like last year, I am very eager for group meetings to start. I am learning a lot about God, myself, and the church. It is good to receive a more reliably balanced view of scripture and theology than is generally available in Episcopal churches today.
I have learned a great deal during my first year with FDCM. I hope to use several of FDCM's discernment exercises in the retreats that I lead in my parish, and to continue through all four years of the FDCM program.
FDCM's theological reflection model is fascinating. Several of the discernment exercises were difficult for me, such as writing the Daily Pages, but I know that I need to do this sort of thing, and look forward to trying them again next year.
I am becoming a more organized, disciplined person through FDCM. I am learning how to use my skills more productively within a small group setting.
We have just completed the first ever on-line version of FDCM, and I heartily recommend the program ... . The History of Christianity reading was very engaging.
