40 Days of Purpose: Seven Deadlies Introduction

Introduction

The 40 Days of Focus: Discovering and Overcoming the Seven Deadly Sins is a church-wide campaign composed of four elements:

1. Small Group Discussion: Groups of 3 to 15 meet regularly for seven weeks to read, share and study a set curriculum. Small groups are the place where individuals can connect with others and gain strength, encouragement and wisdom from those in their small group.

2. Reading: Along with this small group study guide you should participate in a daily devotional reading. Plan to spend 10 minutes each day, six days each week. Chapters include a daily verse, a teaching, questions to ponder and an application.

3. Sunday Preaching: Weekly Sunday sermons are designed to encourage and enlighten you to God’s truth and your responsibility to respond. Sermons are designed to be biblical and practical. If you are not already attending services ask the leader of your small group about our weekend Services.

4. Fasting: This campaign overlaps the 40 days of Lent. In keeping with tradition we recommend that you give-up one food or pastime during this period that will remind you of your commitment to Grow and your desire to Overcome. Some common things you might fast from include: Bread, coffee, caffeine, meat, sugar, or TV.

Thank you for your interest in growing spiritually. May God bless you as you continue to seek Him.
