“What should I do with my life?”
Are you trying figure out what you should do with your life and aren’t sure where to start? Or maybe you know what you want to do, but you’re not sure how to get there.
Join the 2016 Kickstart Challenge
If you want to pursue God’s purpose for your life, the team at LifeLaunch would like to invite you to join committed young people from across the country for the 2016 Kickstart Challenge – a 10-week guided study that will equip to you launch into life NOW with clear vision, through one-on-one mentoring relationships and real-life application.
How This Course Works
Beginning September 29th, this online study course will guide you through the Kickstart curriculum with five interactive webcasts. These webcasts will be held every two weeks and feature some of our Kickstart speakers (view featured speakers). The Kickstart curriculum is made up of 29 lessons, each comprised of an instruction video with a workbook outline and lesson assignments. Sprinkled throughout the course are 9 myKickstart Lap assignments (a personal life planner developed by LifeLaunch). These 29 powerful training videos, lesson assignments, and myKickstart Laps will walk you through the process of:
- Understanding why God made you, what He wants you to do with your life, and what true success looks like
- Writing out a life vision and mission statement, based on a true definition of success
- Setting achievable short term and long term goals
- Identifying the critical areas of knowledge, skill, and character you need to develop to achieve your goals
- Finding and engaging with 1-3 potential mentors
- Taking advantage of the opportunities you have right now, to gain critical experiences and attract greater opportunities
- Selling yourself in a job interview
- …and much more!
“For to everyone who has, more will be given…” (Matthew 25:29)

Who can participate in this course? →
This course is designed for both young men and young women ages, 15 and up. While some of the course content is applied specifically to young men, we believe you will find the principles and advice given tremendously beneficial, no matter whether you are old or young, man or woman. This is simply because these lessons are based on the truth of God as revealed in Scripture, which brings life to anyone who will read and act on it.
How is the Kickstart Challenge different than the Kickstart DVD/workbook set? →
The 2016 Kickstart Challenge is the Kickstart curriculum PLUS, and includes, online access to the updated Kickstart videos (rather than a physical DVD set), both a physical and digital copy of the the Kickstart workbook, access to the 5 live webcasts and their video recordings, and a chance to enter for the grand prize of $1500/a life coaching session with Dave Tucker.
