The ReDIRECT Fast

Fasting Focus

This week’s fast is about the family. In our society today families are often disconnected from God and one another. This week we ReDIRECT our focus to becoming families that honor God and build lasting relationships.

Details

During this week you will be encouraged to fast from all media and technology and ReDIRECT that time to connect with God and building family relationships. By redirecting our time and activities away from distrations that rob us of those connections, we can work to lead our family toward devotion to Christ. After school and work you will fast from all media technology including video games, television, phones, computers, tablets and internet. During your evenings you are encouraged to replace these activities with quality time with your family.
