OneLife Institute OneLife is a 9-month program designed to launch and develop servant leaders who live out their Christian faith in every area of life.

OneLife is a nine-month Christian discipleship program for students who want to grow in their faith, spread God's word, experience genuine community, serve others, and travel while earning college credit.

Known as the "Most Diverse Square Mile in the US," Clarkston, Georgia is one of the largest refugee resettlement communities in the nation. And our Sakanaga site takes a trip there every year!

Instead of just reading about global cultures in a textbook, our students get to experience them firsthand.

We partner with Refuge Coffee , an incredible organization that employs and empowers refugees transitioning to life in the US.

Our students dive into cultural experiences from all over the globe as they sit and hear real stories of strength and resilience.

Wait…did someone say this counts for college credit? 🤯🗺️

We are officially rewriting what "education" looks like. We swap exams for expert presenters who have actually done the thing, trade textbooks for service outreach, and make the open road our classroom.

At OneLife, you will: 🗺️ Travel to places that change your perspective.
🛠️ Serve in ways that grow your character.
🤝 Develop relational wisdom you’ll use forever.
✨ Clarify your calling before jumping right into a major.

Current status: New students settling in, unpacking boxes, and getting to know their new community!

While they get comfy, we're looking back at last year's students serving ultimate dorm room inspo.

This picture is actually of some of our alumni, but we’re excited to start sharing photos of our current students really soon!

Hit follow to keep up with our cohort this year! ☺️

We’re taking our students back to Italy! 🇮🇹

With our base set right in Rome, we’ll be walking through the Colosseum, the Mamertine Prison, the Pantheon, and the Roman Forum to see where ancient church history actually happened.

It’s a week of stepping directly into history, studying early Christian faith where it began, and exploring the city together, along with eating plenty of authentic pizza and gelato along the way. 🍕🍨

Carrying each other through the school year…literally. 😂

When you join a OneLife cohort, you’re not just making friends, you’re acquiring a personal hype team (and free piggyback rides). 💁

“Waiting for absolute, 100% certainty before you take action isn't spiritual maturity. Most of the time, it’s just decision paralysis disguised as patience.”

Oof…😅

I can’t tell you how many times a young adult has asked me “Am I choosing the right path for my life?!”

If you’re feeling the pressure to have your entire life, career, and calling figured out before graduation…do me a favor and take a deep breath.

You don't need the whole map today; you just need a space that helps you discern the next step with real community, intentional discipleship, and hands-on experience.

To our new students just starting out in our program… get ready for some awesome new friendships!

While a traditional freshman year often leaves young adults searching for genuine connection in the noise, OneLife is intentionally built around deep, Christ-centered community.

Our new students aren't just gaining classmates. They’re entering a space where...

Authenticity comes first: No need to perform or pretend; you’re loved and accepted as you are.

Growth happens together: As you clarify your calling and build Christian character, you'll have a tight-knit small cohort sharpening you every single step of the way.

Memories go beyond campus: Traveling the country, serving communities, and tackling outdoor adventures together bonds a group faster than anything else.

Get ready for deep conversations around campfires, endless laughs on long van rides, and friendships rooted in shared purpose.

🧑‍🏫Expert Presenters: Deep dives into practical wisdom, faith, and discovering how God uniquely wired you.

🫶Service Outreach: Getting your hands dirty and living out your calling in real time.

💪Discipleship & Accountability: Having leaders and a cohort that won't let you do life alone.

The next nine months are going to be full of deep conversations, unexpected adventures, and personal growth that will shape the rest of your life.
