Welcome

Thank you for joining us on the blog, designed to give everyone at Northview access to experiencing Northview40 together. We invite you to email us at Northview40@gmail.com and share your experiences throughout the 40 days. Your comments will be posted here as well as each day's prayer topic, corresponding Bible verses, and a suggestion each week for how we can fast together during this time. Your involvement will help make Northview40 a rich experience for all.

We hope that you will be encouraged to take your own steps toward a deeper connection with God, your goal being intimacy with Him, not just a "perfect prayer life" for several weeks. A wise woman has said, "No one of us would say we don't need God. But how much of what we do is done without Him?" Let's invest a few minutes each day to pray and a few more minutes once a week to fast, taking a risk to need Him and watching to see what He will do.

Drivers, Start your Engines...

Tomorrow we officially begin Northview40!  You can find the day's prayer topic in the guide you received at last Sunday's service or visit us here tomorrow (each day's topic will post at 12am).


Feel free to spend as little or as much time talking with God about the topic - it's not the quantity that matters most, but the quality (that it's genuine and honest) and the consistency (even if it's only 60 seconds, every day).  Challenge yourself- you know best what will be an improvement for you in connecting with God.


If you forget a day, don't worry- just pick back up on the date you remember.  That will keep us all praying  about the same thing each day.  Make freedom and joy your goal - not rules, pressure or guilt.  God is not focused on your imperfection, but your desire to see Him.


The adventure begins!

    I understand that this 40 day prayer experience might be a new thing for some of you, but i am really excited about how I think it will influence our church and community. I look forward to hearing your stories.
