CHOOSE A FAST :

The goal of fasting is to draw near to God.
It hits the reset button of our soul and renews us form the inside out. When deciding on a fast, we encourage you to seek God in prayer and follow what the Holy Spirit leads you to do. 

  • Selective Fast-involves removing certain elements
    from your diet

  • Partial Fast-involves abstaining from eating any type
    of food between certain times of the day or certain
    meals.

  • Complete Fast-In this type of fast, you drink only
    liquids, typically water with light juices as an option.

  • Soul Fast-A great option if you do not have much
    experience fasting food, have health issues that
    prevent you from fasting food, or if you wish to
    refocus certain areas of your life that are out of
    balance. For example, you might choose to stop
    using social media or watching television during the
    fast.

TYPES OF FAST:

READ THE BIBLE EVERYDAY:

One of the ways we get to Know God better is through His word. The Bible is God’s word written to us personally. We encourage everyone to join us in our church-wide bible reading plan.

ATTEND CHURCH EVERY SUNDAY

SERVE THOSE AROUND YOU:

Fasting isn’t just about giving

something up. It’s also about giving of yourself.

  • Serve on the Revitalize Dream Team

  • Show acts of kindness wherever you go (i.e. pay for
    someone’s coffee, open the door for other people,
    etc.)

  • Smile, encourage those around you.
