How Much Does an E-course Cost? Can I Pay by Credit Card or Check?

The "current" e-course, where you do the course at the same time as a lot of other people, range in cost from $24.95 or about a sixty cents a day for one of the Practicing Spirituality e-courses, to $29.95 - $40 for one of the Online Retreats. When first run, these programs include access to a private online "Practice Circle," where you can interact with other course participants and the course leaders.

The "on-demand" e-courses, where you use our system to choose your own start date and the frequency of the emails, range from $15.00 - $29.95. These do not include a Practice Circle. You may also be joining a custom e-course combining one of our course with a private Practice Circle for your congregation or group; the price for these is determined based upon all the components of the program.

These minimal fees are actually a very important source of support for SpiritualityandPractice.com. They cover the costs of our time finding the quotations and developing the practice suggestions for each e-course. And they also support our ongoing work as one of the few sources of contemporary book reviews in the fields of religion and spirituality.

When you click on the "Subscribe" button at the bottom of the description of an e-course, you will be walked through the sign-up process. On one page, you will be given an opportunity to either (1) pay by credit card through our secure server or (2) pay by check. If you choose the later, the next page will give you the instructions for how to make out the check (payable to CIStems, Inc., the nonprofit organization behind SpiritualityandPractice.com) and where to mail it. Please print out this page and enclose it with your check.

You must go through the online system to get registered for the course, to have your email address added to the list, and to get access to the private Practice Circle. Please do not just send a check to our offices without going through these steps.
