Keep what the group builds.
You prep questions, you facilitate, you watch people have realizations out loud. And then next week you start from scratch. The things your group discovered together — they're in someone's head, maybe, but not anywhere you can all come back to.
A shared space for the whole group
Shared Spaces let a whole group study in the same threads — questions, discoveries, and scripture references that live beyond the hour you meet. Hosting is included with Harvous Plus; joining a space is always free.
If your whole church teaches on Harvous — a plan per ministry, a series that holds its weeks, a room a volunteer can lead — see how it works for churches.
How it works
Open a shared space for your group with threads per week or topic. Your prep notes stay private; the group sees what you choose to share. You stay in control of who belongs and what the space contains.
What that looks like in Harvous
-
A shared space for your group
Everyone in the group can add to the same threads. Questions, answers, connections — all in one place that lives beyond the hour you meet.
-
Threads per week or topic
Week four of your James study has its own thread. Everyone's notes from that session live together. You can look back at what the group found without trying to remember.
-
You stay in control
You set up the space and invite who belongs. You decide what threads exist and what the group can see. It's your space — others are guests in it.
-
Keep your prep notes private
Your own notes on the passage — the prep, the things you wanted to say, the questions you almost asked — stay in your personal space. The group only sees what you add to the shared one.
Harvous is for…
Same way of studying — different people who show up that way. Pick the one that sounds like you.

Works alongside other tools
Harvous does a different job than most Bible apps. Many people use it next to something they already love.
“This is one of the most beautiful pieces of software I’ve used recently.”
