Take the 5-Minute Challenge
The Challenge helps you navigate straight to the part of the SYNC site that talks about what you care about. Take five minutes to read through the seven SYNC "mini-stories". Take another five minutes to choose the mini-story that interests you most. Then use the "Tool Kit" link at the end of the mini-story you chose. Any tool in the kit should take you to a page that connects with you. Go to the 5-Minute Challenge
Listen for your "Just-do-it" assignment
Discover something God wants you to do this week as a member of his campaign to bless the world. Solo, buddy, and group options all take you through a simple self-guiding discovery process including prayer, questions, and a short Bible reading. The process will help you realize something specific that God's Spirit is nudging you to do soon.
Bible-in-a-year readings
Read through the Bible in a year with about three Old Testament chapters and one New Testament chapter each day. The readings loosely follow the annual cycle of SYNC themes. Go to Bible-in-a-year readings
Make your day with Jubilee Cards
Set the tone for your day in one minute or less with this set of 50 Bible verses. Each Jubilee Card has an affirmation about the way you see yourself. That affirmation is linked to a Bible verse and a very short prayer. Customizable content. Many uses. Go to Jubilee Cards
Party on!
Tired of 24/7? SYNC has a fix. Celebrate some or all of the 19 holidays in the SYNC calendar. SYNC weaves these traditional Christian, Jewish, and secular holidays into a new pattern. As you realize how each holiday is connected to a key moment in SYNC's story of the world, you get connected to that story. It lifts you above 24/7. Go to the SYNC Calendar OR see more about the "Story of the World"
Creative writing/editing exercise
If you like to dive VERY deep, this variation on the 10-Minute Challenge may interest you enough that you will invest much more than ten minutes in it. Review SYNC's seven "mini-stories," and choose one mini-story as your starting point. Read the 800-word expansion of that mini-story, then adapt that expanded version so it works for you and whoever you want to tell it to. Go to exercise instructions. OR Go to mini-stories to preview them.
