Northview40.1 - Fasting
If you haven't considered it already, remember our first invitation to fast together. There will be 5 invitations throughout Northview40, suggesting specific, simple ways you can fast. Consider the following:
What is an activity within Christianity that you feel you "should" or are "supposed to" do? Think of what this might be and spend a few minutes doing it, asking God to help you do it from your heart. Trust Him to provide you with a fresh, meaningful experience.

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!

Why Fast?
For some of us, fasting may seem extreme, overwhelming, unnecessary, or just plain weird. If you are interesting in fasting during Northview40 but feeling unsure, we'd like to offer a few thoughts...

"I'm Sorry" Fasting:
Let's consider the following together, anytime between today and 3/6...
What is an activity within Christianity that you feel you "should" or are "supposed to" do? Think of what this might be and spend a few minutes doing it, asking God to help you do it from your heart. Trust Him to provide you with a fresh, meaningful experience.

Verses for "I'm Sorry"
Isaiah 55:2 – “Why spend money on what is not bread, and your labor on what does not satisfy? Listen, listen to me, and eat what is good and your soul will delight in the richest of fare.”
