It starts with the unique profiles or templates that have been supplied in scripture. These profiles, much like a periodic table, help us to identify, understand, and anticipate the 'elements' of human behavior. They provide a framework for understanding the limitations and possibilities of our actions and decisions, and how these can be navigated and nurtured within the context of discipleship. The course seeks to explore these profiles not just for the sake of understanding, but for the purpose of transformation. It's about discerning what makes life worth living on a grander scale, and how every soul is ordained for greatness. This is not about a one-size-fits-all approach to growth and development. Instead, it's about recognisng the unique ways in which each individual is called to reflect God's image and fulfill His purposes in the world.

The pattern of sevens is a fascinating concept that appears repeatedly in various aspects of our world. In nature, there are seven distinct colors in the rainbow and seven continents on the Earth. In the realm of religion, specifically in Christianity, the number seven is repeatedly mentioned in the scriptures, symbolizing completeness or divine perfection. The creation story in Genesis speaks of a seven-day period.

In the field of music, there are seven notes in a diatonic scale. This pattern can also be seen in human anatomy, where there are seven openings in the human head: two eyes, two ears, two nostrils, and one mouth.

In psychology, Miller's Law posits that the average number of objects an individual can hold in their working memory is about seven. Lastly, in the physical sciences, a neutral pH value – representing a balance of acidity and alkalinity – is seven.

This recurring pattern highlights the surprising ways in which the number seven is woven into the fabric of our existence, from the natural world to human creations and thought.
