A 40 Day Journey with a Purpose

By being part of Anchor, Lent & 40 Days of Purpose, you are giving yourself a daily opportunity to move forward in your life, forward in a bit different direction, with a bit more intention, maybe a bit more hope.


As you walk this journey, make some time in the early morning or early evening, or even on your noon lunchbreak, to do some reading and thinking. Working your way through the Purpose Driven Life won't be hard, but it will be helpful when you work at it, when you chew on the material, focus on what convicts you, and open yourself up to some change. You get out of it what you put into it.


So, for 40 days you get permission to have fifteen or thirty minutes all to yourself. You, a book, a pen, a mug of hot chocolate, and a curious heart. Reflect as you read, no need to race through it. Write as you reflect, it'll help you remember what you read. And pray as you write, make the writing your prayer, your questions to God, or let them be questions from God. Does that make sense?


You may not agree with or understand everything written in this book, but it should prompt some inspired ideas, some thinking that leads you in a renewed direction.


Let God transform you 
into a new person 
by changing the way you think
Then you will know 
what God wants you to do.  
(Romans 12v2 TEV)
