The Bible teaches us to give the first 10% of our income to the "storehouse." God says we can test Him by doing this and watching Him take care of us in return. This may sound like a stretch to you! Just take a step toward toward that goal. If you currently give nothing, start giving something. If you give something, try increasing it a step toward the 10% goal. Trust God! Give Him your first before anything else by setting up a recurring, automated donation online. You will then receive quarterly updates about how your giving is making a difference and how your donations are being used.
http://www.onelifeknox.com/giveBottom Line: Loving Jesus means loving what Jesus loves.
Jesus loves new beginnings.
Jesus loves growth and progress.
Jesus loves people far from God.
Jesus loves people who are hurting.
Jesus loves the church.
START TALKING:
What is something that you started loving because someone you love loves it? When you think back on it, how surprising is it that this is something you became interested or invested in?

START THINKING:
Read Revelation 21:5. When Jesus says, "I am making..." the verb tense is present-continuous, which means "happening now, already underway, and continuing into the future." What does this mean about when Jesus makes all things new? Is He waiting until the end of times? Or is He doing it even now? And what does this mean for those who follow Him?
Read 2 Corinthians 5:17. How does this verse support Revelation 21:5? What does it mean for people who follow Jesus? How would you explain this to someone who was new to faith or exploring their faith?

START SHARING:
Read Matthew 7:7. Now think about the progression of each command:
- Ask: verbal request; minimal effort; acknowledges need
- Seek: active pursuit; movement involved; intentional searching
- Knock: physical action; persistence; expectation of response
And now think about the relational progression of each:
- Ask: speaking from a distance
- Seek: moving toward
- Knock: standing at the door
How have you experienced this growth as you have grown in your next steps with Jesus? What steps have you taken to go deeper in your faith?

START DOING:
Loving Jesus means loving what Jesus loves and in turn doing what Jesus does and celebrating what Jesus celebrates. Answer each of these questions and commit to taking one step: What can you do this week to put into action:
- Loving people far from God?
- Loving people who are hurting?
- Loving the church?
If Jesus loves growth and progress, it means He loves it when you grow and take next steps, too! What is a next step in your faith that you can take now to grow?

START PRAYING:
Pray for each step each person committed to in the last section. Pray that we live as if it is the last days - because it is - and make 2026 the best year ever!

Take a Next Step!
Don't just attend church for an hour a week. Take a step! What step should you take?
1. Follow Jesus! If you have followed Jesus...
2. Get baptized! If you are following Jesus, then that's all you need to be "ready" to take this step.
3. Volunteer! Don't simply be a consumer, but be part of making a difference in the lives of those who come to OneLife to experience Jesus. There are weekday and Sunday opportunities. Get info about what opportunities there are for you!
4. Join a micro church! You can't have true community sitting in rows with a large crowd. That's not the church - it's an event! Micro churches are small "churches" of 10-12 adults that meet in homes throughout the week to learn together, pray together, serve the community together, and care for each other together.
Get more information about any of the above, send us your prayer requests so we can pray with you, or ask any question we can help you with by filling out the online connection card!
