10K Challenge
10, 000 years of intentional impact
What is the 10k challenge?
To release 10,000 years of intentional ministry in the next decade. Think about that – 10 millennia of witness. How much impact can we have through 10,000 years?
How can we do this?
Our generation can accomplish this challenge by giving a LIFE TITHE. That means tithing on your life to engage in intentional ministry. Perhaps your tithe is to give 1 year of full time service to missions – perhaps it is 5 years. But living intentionally in a missional lifestyle also means seeking to see the Kingdom established wherever you are or whatever you are doing.
So – you could see being a nurse as your missional calling. You could be a carpenter, a full time student, working at a shop – but see it as an opportunity to see Gods’ kingdom established in your relationships and interactions their. Or you could start a Bible study, local outreach, disciplship, or evangelism in your local community.
Wherever we are, if we live intentionally and see it as an opportunity to be engaged in the mission of God (to see his kingdom come) you are giving a Life Tithe. The 10k challenge is for us to live intentionally for God wherever we are, in whatever sphere we find ourselves. If we are intentional to see the kingdom established – it is ALL ministry.

Every individual year counts towards the goal.
Here are a few examples of people who are part of the 10k challenge:
- John has joined YWAM and is part leading discipleship training in Australia.
- After her YWAM DTS Ann followed a calling to go home and train to be a teacher so she can impact young children.
- Andrew followed a calling to join the fire department so he can be a missional disciple in that environment.
- Susan is living in her home community in Australia and is handing out sandwiches one night a week to the homeless and sharing God’s love.

Will you take up the challenge?
If you have been a student or staff at YWAM Sunshine Coast, Australia and you are living intentionally – let us know where you are and what you are doing. We want to track everyone – that means putting you on our “wall of fame”, update letters of who is doing what, and being added to our interactive map below. We will send out regular updates of how many people have taken up the challenge and most importantly – how many years we have accumulated!
