DANIEL FAST OVERVIEW

WHAT?

A Daniel Fast, named after two recorded fasts in Scripture by a leader named Daniel, describes an intensified spiritual engagement designed to catalyze unforgettable encounters with God. Everyone is invited and strongly encouraged to participate. Participants can expect to engage God's love in fresh ways, receive revelation knowledge, be stirred in their faith and to flush out the spiritual toxins that have become "normal" part of their lives.

WHEN?

Our 21-Day fasting program begins on a Sunday and ends at noon on a Saturday. You can set your specific calendar and launch date to your desires.

HOW?

Denying your physical desires and pleasant foods (this includes meats, sugars, carbonated beverages, pleasure electronics, magazines, news, social media, etc) while saturating your spiritual desires with intensified devotion (this includes Bible reading, prayer, relational bonding, etc.)

WHO?

Everyone is strongly encouraged to join in at appropriate levels. Those with necessary work-related responsibilities or dietary concerns can modify as needed. Teenagers are encouraged to join in at "stretching levels" with modifications for school function needs. All teenagers are encouraged to deny pleasure electronics, magazines, news, social media, etc. – be unhooked – throughout the 21 days. Children under 11 are encouraged to "deny themselves" appropriate pleasures. Everyone should set their personal fasting goals, with personal needs adjusted for. And then execute those goals with unrelenting diligence.
