About Mindful Christianity

Creating space to be still in God’s presence.

We create Scripture-centered encouragement, devotionals, books, music, and practical resources to help quiet the mind and draw people closer to Jesus.

Our Mission

A quieter way to follow Jesus.

Life is loud. Our minds carry constant news, responsibilities, worries, memories, and questions about what comes next. Even our faith can begin to feel hurried.

Mindful Christianity exists to help people slow down, become present, and remember that Jesus is already near. This is not about escaping real life. It is about learning to meet real life with a heart anchored in Christ.

Through simple spiritual practices and Scripture-centered encouragement, we invite people to release what they cannot carry, take their thoughts captive, and rest in the presence of God.

Our Story

What began as a message has become a shared ministry.

Mindful Christianity began with Paul Bane’s desire to help people experience the peace and presence of Jesus in the middle of ordinary, complicated life. That message connected with people who were weary, anxious, grieving, searching, or simply longing for a deeper relationship with God.

Over time, the ministry grew into a worldwide community. Joel Bane joined Paul in carrying that mission forward, expanding the work through weekly devotionals, books, music, digital resources, and daily encouragement shared across social media.

Today, Paul and Joel create together with one purpose: to help people quiet the noise, renew their minds with Scripture, and become more aware of Jesus in every moment.
