The Giving Challenge
Our culture constantly pushes us to chase more—more comfort, more security, more things. But Jesus calls His followers to live differently, embracing radical generosity. The Giving Challenge, written by Zach Zehnder, is a six-week journey where we’ll explore the teachings of Jesus, hear inspiring stories, and discover that true joy and purpose come not from what we keep, but from what we give.
Acts of Kindness
As we wrap up the Giving Challenge, we’re encouraging you to show God’s love through simple acts of kindness. Pick up Acts of Kindness cards at your King of Kings campus, then share them with friends, neighbors, and your community as you spread His love. Check out the list below for inspiration.
- Pay for someone’s gas.
- Take out the garbage for an elderly or handicap neighbor.
- Leave an encouraging note or surprise in items you are donating, selling, or returning.
- Deliver fresh-baked cookies to a neighbor or co-worker.
- Bring fresh flowers to someone.
- Mow someone’s yard for free.
- Pay for someone’s coffee behind you in the drive-through.
- Pay for someone’s fast food meal behind you in the drive-through.
- Send a note of encouragement to someone.
- Give baked goods or a small gift to the postman or delivery person.
- Leave a big tip for your server at a restaurant.
- Help someone who you know is struggling financially.
- Pay for someone’s meal or dessert at a restaurant.
- Bake goodies and take them to the police station, fire station, or hospital.
- Take a box of doughnuts to a school, office, etc.
- Cook a meal for a neighbor or co-worker.
- Help tutor a struggling student.
- Pay for someone’s groceries that is behind you in line.
- Have your kids draw pictures for your neighbors, write an encouraging note on the back, and drop them off in their mailboxes. Include an Acts of Kindness card!
- As you walk, bike, or jog around your neighborhood, pray for protection over the families of each household. Let your neighbors know you’re praying for them.
- Call a local nursing home or retirement community and ask if there’s anything you can do to help the residents with groceries or other practical needs. Drop items off with notes of encouragement!
CHILDREN'S HOPECHEST
We’re partnering with Children’s HopeChest to sponsor the Los Amates CarePoint in Guatemala. Your support helps provide education, nutrition, health, and spiritual care—empowering children, families, and an entire community through the gospel.
When you sponsor a child, you don’t just change their life—you help transform a community.
