We are fasting as an opportunity to eliminate distractions, barriers, and anything that consumes our time with the Lord and center our focus on hearing what God has for us at Family Life. January 11th through the 31st, we're inviting our church body and guests to engage in any fast of their choice and pray daily with us at Family Life.
What is a Fast?
-
to voluntarily reduce or eliminate your intake of food, media, entertainment, and music, for a specific time and purpose. For Family Life, we set aside 21 Days at the beginning of every year to spend time with our heavenly father in prayer, devotion, and corporate intercession to align our hearts with his will.
Why Do We Fast?
To shift our focus completely on God instead of fulfilling our fleshly desires.
