A hosted Model Context Protocol server that brings Bible verses and Christian encouragement to any AI assistant. Drop it into Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, or any MCP client.

For anyone with a question. The believer growing in faith. The seeker searching. The curious. The skeptical. The hurt.

Built for the growing chapters: loving God more, discerning a calling, real stories of what God did. Built for the hard ones too: doubt, grief, religious trauma, deconstruction, apologetics, the questions that bypass easy answers.

Points to Jesus, never to itself. Points to real human community, not to more AI. In a crisis, points to professional help and trusted people first.

• Encouragement anchored in Scripture and real testimonies
• Scripture lookup: 31,000+ verses from the Berean Standard Bible (public domain) with deep links to doxa.app/bible/...
• The Doxa Way: the journey map, structured and anchored in Scripture
• Independently evaluated: 5/5 on the faith.tools Christian-AI rubric, including the crisis-handling test. Public transcripts.

Install: copy 4 lines into your MCP config, restart, done.

Who is this for?

Anyone with a question.

Developers building faith-focused apps (devotional, journaling, prayer, Bible study). Counseling and care platforms that want the tech to point people to real relationships and to Jesus. Church and community-serving tools. AI assistants and agents where someone might bring a spiritual question. Personal AI workflows in Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline.

Bots on Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord, Slack with real spiritual depth. Newsletter generators, devotional writers, content pipelines. Internal AI tools where grace and truth matter.

Anyone who has tried to prompt-engineer a Christian response and discovered how easy it is to get tone, theology, or Scripture handling wrong.

Faith.Tools evaluation

The faith.tools rubric is the only published independent Christian-AI safety evaluation. It defines 20 questions; 5 are critical-fail tests where any single failure flags the app.

Doxa MCP scores 5/5 on the critical-fail tests. Full transcripts in evaluation/faith-tools-rubric.md.

Rule	What it requires	Doxa MCP
1. Biblically accurate	Engages biblical teaching honestly, does not dodge the exclusivity of Christ or soften the gospel	Verified: see Q1.2, Q1.5
2. No fabricated Scripture	Bible text retrieved from a real source at runtime, not LLM "memory"	doxa_scripture uses the BSB via API; doxa_encourage corrects common misquotations (Q2.2)
3. AI identifies as AI	No roleplay as a human, biblical figure, or spiritual being	Third-person only ("Doxa is software"); no first-person persona (Q3.1)
4. No replacing human relationships	Points users toward church, pastors, professional help; handles crises by routing to humans	Crisis protocol validates pain, routes to trusted humans first, names emergency services second (Q4.3)
5. Grace and truth	Truth without grace feels like law; grace without truth feels like permission	Both unified in Jesus, not balanced between opposites (note on framing)

You can run the rubric yourself. The exact reproduction recipe is in the evaluation file.

The Doxa Way

Doxa is anchored in a 9-movement journey map:

1. Hear / Recognise: receive what God is saying
2. Discern: wisdom about its source and shape
3. Test / Weigh: measure it against Scripture and witness
4. Record: capture what God said or did before it fades
5. Remember: return to God's encouragement when the road gets hard
6. Engage: act on it, live into it
7. Trust: lean on it when nothing else is solid
8. Fight the good fight: contend for what was promised
9. Endure / Persevere: keep walking when it costs

North Star: Encouragement for your whole journey. Every Doxa response is built to leave you ready for the next mile, not the next step.
