Intended audiences for this curriculum include individual congregants, ministers and their congregations, conference ministers and staff, and national officials and staff.

It is suitable for UCC adult education classes and all manner of UCC conferences and gatherings, including annual conference gatherings, retreats, and UCC General Synod.
