Become the woman of God you were created to be...
Have simple, practical steps to easily implement into your daily life.
Lose the guilt from feeling bored quickly or easily distracted with your Bible Study by having a ready-made plan to follow!
Connect with women who are walking on a similar path towards Christlikeness through a thriving, global community.
Become "unstuck" spiritually and break through in a fresh way to move beyond that invisible ceiling.
If any of that sounds good, Sojo Academy is for you!
We invite you to join hundreds of other women walking side by side in community as we study God's Word and grow in spiritual maturity!
THAT'S EXACTLY WHY WE TEAMED UP AND CREATED THIS PLACE!
Over five years ago, we had a vision for a special place... a place for women JUST LIKE YOU to make real transformations over time through three biblical components: mentoring community, rich Bible study, and creative & practical worship.
Sojo Academy is an ongoing membership for Christian women that provides a practical, streamlined spiritual growth plan.
It's a membership like no other!









and what makes Sojo Academy different from other memberships?
Mentoring and Access to Experience
Take advantage of our combined 50+ years of ministry and history in teaching women as we work together to grow in faith. We have the background needed to help you in your journey and we are walking right beside you!
A Thriving Community of Christian Friends
The best way to fail is to go it alone. Our strong online community is filled with hundreds of women just like you from all over the world is as beautiful and supportive as it is diverse. No matter where you live, when you’re here, you’re family.
Fresh Deep Bible Studies with a Daily Plan
Although our Bible Studies are easy to go through with proven structure and templates, there is no fluff! They'll take you deep into the Word and are designed to get you interacting in a way where God can speak to you more clearly. You will never be at a loss for something to study, and because we give you a daily plan, you will avoid feeling overwhelmed.
Prayer Support
We have monthly praise and prayer threads where prayer warriors gather and lift each other up to the Father. We celebrate each other's praise reports and mourn in each other's suffering.
Resources for Creative Worship
Each month we provide creative elements, such as Bible journaling tools, to accent our Bible Study. We know women learn differently and want to provide unique ways to grow in maturity. Regardless of your unique "creativity", we will give you all the resources you need to get started experiencing the truths of God's Word in new and fun ways.
We Walk With You!
We won't give you a ton of material and then leave you on your own to fumble through it. We are committed to your spiritual development. In addition to having a plan for you to follow each month, both Jen and AJ are an active part inside the community. You get direct access to us.
Monthly Jumpstarts
The first Tuesday of the month, the day after our new Bible Study is released, we gather, review everything in the Bible Study Bundle and plan exactly how we will get in the Word for the month. We celebrate victories, make new goals, and take practical steps to grow in our faith... together!
Creative Tutorials
Each month will bring a fresh tutorial on how to grow in your worship through creativity... and the video replays will stay in the Bonus Library for you to review at any time! You will be inspired to step out of your comfort zone and engage with the Word of God in fresh ways!
Study Together
Join in a time of corporate study when we gather, spend time in the Word on Zoom, then share what we are learning. This is a sweet time of accountability!
Guest Mentors
You will not only hear from Jen and AJ, but there are guest mentors teaching in the community regularly. Creative guests, women in different walks of life, and trusted Bible teachers!
No Contracts
You will be automatically charged monthly, quarterly, or annually per the plan you choose, but you are free to cancel your membership right inside your Dashboard at any time before your next billing cycle begins. We want you to grow and learn and stay in community, but we understand circumstances sometimes change and want to make this process as easy as possible for you.
Affordability
Everything included in one month of the Academy costs less than the price of a pizza... and is much better for you! We are intentional about keeping the costs as low as possible to include as many women as God sends our way.
Monthly Reading and Writing Scripture Plans
Each month you will get a Scripture Reading and Writing plan that ties into the Bible Study we are working through that month. This will be in list and calendar form and is perfect to help with your daily plan of being in the Word, even when you can't do the full study!
Printables, Workbooks, and Bonuses
Each month, our studies come with beautifully designed workbooks, checklists, and extra fun printables! We try to provide what our members need so there are often extra goodies and surprises ... including discounted (and early bird) access to other products, giveaways within the membership, or an encouraging mini-study for when you just feel defeated.
Extra Teaching and Trainings
There is a bonus resource library that you are free to dive into at any time during your journey. It includes workshops like How to do a Bible Book Study, How to Create a Prayer Journal, How to do Word Studies, and more...

Meet AJ and Jen
We are Arabah Joy (left) and Jen Evangelista (right) and together we run Sojo Academy, an online community for Christian women.
Arabah Joy is wife to Jackson and adoptive and biological mom to four active kids. Her 22 years in ministry include church planting, 14 years of overseas missionary service, writing, teaching, and mentoring.
AJ especially loves sharing Bible study methods and hands-on actionable tools so others can experience the same life-transforming power of God’s word that she has in their every day lives.
Jen Evangelista is wife to Brad and mom to 4 pretty cool kids. She has been in ministry with her husband for over 24 years teaching kids, college students and women of all ages and cultures.
Jen has a passion for the local church, missions, teaching, and above all else, the Gospel. And she loves finding creative ways to dig deeper into God's Word with other women.
Collectively, we've adopted internationally, lived in 5 different countries, gone through medical school, put our husbands through seminary, planted churches, worked as professionals, started our own businesses, served as military wives and homeschooled kids. Because of this, we bring decades of ministry and life experience to all that we do and we love doing life with you!

What our members are saying about Sojo Academy:

"Earlier this year, I joined Sojo Academy, a faith-based community for women looking to deepen their walks with Christ. I have been so blessed by the monthly Bible study kits, the optional challenges, and the support and friendship in this online group.
I am so thankful to have this online body of believers to help further my spiritual growth, and also for the opportunity it provides me to in turn pray for and serve others!"
Julie

"What I love most about SoJo is that there is accountability and support here. I'm excited to dive deeper into God's word again and face my spiritual battles with such a great cloud of witnesses and to keep going strong from this moment forward."
Nancy

"Since joining Sojo Academy, I'm never at a loss for creative, inspiring Bible study resources! The variety is quite impressive. In fact, I'm spending more time in God's Word since joining Sojo. How great is that!
I have also discovered a precious sense of community. We pray for each other and we share ideas and inspiration, both personal and those from our Bible studies. Sojo Academy is a blessing from God!"
Linda

"Since joining Sojo Academy, I've seen my depression lifting. It's been very small increments, but I have had 3 female deaths in my family recently and I have not regressed. That is a HUGE thing for me. Being in (almost) daily time with God has been a game-changer.
I love the variety of different studies. I've heard of most of these types of studies but never known where to start. Thank you."
Crystal

"I am feeling so blessed to be a part of this group! I NEVER thought I would open up and let my anxiety go with a large group of people, but I feel so open and honest with you ladies, it's amazing! God is really working in me, and I hope he is working in all of you through this group as well! Praise the Lord for Sojo Academy! Praise the Lord for Jen and AJ!"
Angie

"I want to tell you how much I love Sojo! Bible Readings are my favorite part ... and the workshops are very informative. Being a part of the Sojo Community has been such a help."
