The Journey Begins
Welcome to the My One Word journey. Since 2007, this project has helped thousands of individuals move beyond broken promises of the past towards a brighter hope of who God created them to be. The challenge is simple: lose the long list of resolutions you want to make this year and instead pick ONE WORD. This process provides clarity by taking all of your big plans for life change and narrowing them down into a single thing.
For those who have been part of this experiment before, I am glad you are going to join us again this year. I hope God continues to form your character through your new word as He has done in the years past. To those who are hearing about this project for the very first time, we invite you to join us and pick one word for 2012.
Don’t worry if a word doesn’t come to mind right away. We encourage you to use the month of January to reflect and pray about the areas where growth needs to take place in your character. Then, on February 1, 2012, life with your One Word officially begins. This gives you some time to try it on and test it out before you are stuck with it.
Please share your word with us by posting it on our blog beginning this Friday and don’t forget to spread My One Word so we can say good bye to New Year’s Resolutions!

Site Being Updated for 2012!
We hope that your journey last year of picking one word and letting God use it to mold and shape you in 2011 has been a inspiring process! Since 2012 is here, we have taken down the login page to update our system for this year.
But don’t freak out!
We have kept all of your word journal entries and information safe and sound. You will be able to access it once the system comes back online by Friday, January 6th as well as add your word for 2012 once you have picked it.
We are really excited about what 2012 holds for you and your one word, and are working hard to continue providing you with new content and resources to help you keep your word in front of you in the coming year.
Check back January 6th, 2012 to login and put your word up for other to see and be encouraged by what you chose!
In the meantime, here are a few things you can be doing this week to begin the process of picking a word in 2012:
