Transformed through Prayer & Fasting

This blog was created to help all who are participating in the 21 Days of Faith, a prayer and fasting initiative, to fully experience God and His Truth. 

Both prayer and fasting were practiced by the early church (New Testament Church), and was a regular part of the yearly focus.  Our desire is that you would experience the power and freedom that comes through prayer, mixed with fasting.  While some join in fasting the entire 21 days, others participate in partial a fast during this time.  Begin to ask God how He would have to worship Him during this time.

Our church has taken the 3 weeks leading up to Palm Sunday (1 week prior to Easter Sunday) as a season of Spiritual Emphasis.  Not only do we focus on our spiritual development, but we also use this time to pray for those in our lives who have yet to respond to Christ's gift of salvation.
