2023 ANNUAL REPORT
Dear Friend,
As I look at the global events that unfolded in 2023, one thing is clearer than ever: the world is in need of a Savior. As wars rage in the seen and unseen realms, the greatest need for Jews, Arabs and ALL peoples is for them to come to know Jesus, the Prince of Peace.
I am honored we can share OneWay’s 2023 annual report — a celebration of your partnership in the gospel and a testament of how God is using vessels like you and me in His continued mission “to seek and save the lost” (Luke 19:10).
Your gifts and prayers fueled a jam-packed year of bringing light amid darkness...
TAX SMART GIVING STRATEGIES TO GROW GOD'S KINGDOM (A PLANNED GIVING RESOURCE)
Making a difference by investing in causes you believe in is important to you. Did you know that in addition to cash donations, there are many ways you can maximize your resources to make a lasting Kingdom impact?
WHAT IS PLANNED GIVING?
Planned giving is the transfer of assets to a designated nonprofit organization during a lifetime or as part of an estate plan. This approach to giving is “planned” because often these assets are not liquid, have tax consequences and are generally transferred via a will or other written means.
In addition to the satisfaction of making a meaningful gift, most planned gifts have immediate and/or long-term tax benefits. Be sure to consult with your financial or estate planner.
REACHING THE UNREACHED: A GUIDE TO GROW YOUR HEART FOR THE WORLD
There are billions all around the globe who have never heard the gospel. They will likely never have the chance unless someone outside their community brings it to them. They are called the unreached. For every missionary working among these communities, more than 300,000 people are unreached. If this doesn't change, tens of thousands of people will continue to die every day without ever knowing that Christ offers salvation.
This reality can be overwhelming, but OneWay exists to help reach people. We have created a guide to help you learn about the unreached and discover ways to get involved.
In this free guide, we offer small, tangible steps to begin your part in making God's glory known among the nations.
THE NUMBER ONE STRATEGY FOR REACHING THE LOST
An estimated 140,000 people will enter eternity today without a saving relationship with Jesus. If the second greatest commandment is to love our neighbors as ourselves, how can we be okay with this? It should grieve us to our core.
So we have to face this critical question: What do we do in response? If we’re not okay with the fact that Satan is populating hell to the tune of 140,000 people every single day, what will we do? What’s the one thing that if the Church got right would most impact that number?
I am convinced — and I believe on the authority of God’s Word — that there is nothing more powerful and more effective we can do to impact lost and unreached masses around the world for all eternity than to pray.

A LIFE THAT'S NOT MY OWN: SARAH'S STORY
"It isn't what I can do for God that gives me worth, but my worth is in who He has made me to be: His daughter, redeemed, servant of Christ, chosen, image-bearer of God, and disciple."
These words preface the praises and groanings Sarah Lindsey wrote after being diagnosed with a rare form of cancer.
After a lifetime spent dreaming of going on mission near and abroad to love and advocate for "the least of these," Sarah and her husband JP would soon be confronted with navigating what it means to trust the Lord — no matter the circumstance.
This book is a compilation of the blog entries that Sarah wrote as a means of "expressing her thoughts and experiences for whoever might be interested in following along." As an avid journaler throughout her life, Sarah shared, "I have always loved to reflect and write, and my hope is that through these modest reflections, someone may feel less alone or more encouraged."
Through great trials, devastating loss and godly pursuit, Sarah writes about what it means to truly live "A Life That's Not My Own."
