About One Mile Mission.
Mission
Equip local churches to reach their immediate neighbors with the gospel of Jesus Christ through simple, affordable, relationship-centered outreach.
Philosophy
Demonstrate genuine concern before asking for commitment. Outreach begins with relationships, not recruitment.
One Mile Mission is an independent brand serving broadly evangelical churches.

Dr. Jeremy Roberts is the founder and principal instructor of One Mile Mission, an independent ministry training brand that helps local churches reach the neighbors closest to them with practical, affordable, relationship-centered outreach.
The One Mile Mission approach grew out of a church outreach effort he was part of: the team mapped a one-mile radius around the campus, displayed a large map in the lobby, and highlighted each street as volunteers covered it.
The idea also echoes a lesson from a recent local political campaign in his family, where the campaign's consultant stressed that knocking on doors still works. It's an analogy for the value of personal contact, not a claim that campaigning and evangelism are the same.
