Resources


God is speaking—are you listening? Every year, we join together for an intentional time of prayer and fasting. For three weeks, we turn down the noise of life to get clarity and direction as we hear from the Holy Spirit. While it may seem intimidating or complicated, fasting is simply a period of time that you give up a type of food—or something else you regularly depend on—so you can turn your focus toward God in prayer. It’s not about what you’re giving up but what you’re going to gain.

Throughout the fast, you’ll be encouraged spiritually through a daily devotional on the Christ Fellowship App and equipped practically with resources to help you establish long-term habits.

Questions about prayer and fasting? We’re glad you asked!


When does 21 Days of Prayer & Fasting start?
21 Days of Prayer & Fasting is happening March 11-31 as we encounter Jesus leading up to Easter. To get technical, prayer and fasting traditionally starts at sundown and ends at sunrise. For us, this means the fast starts at sundown on Sunday, March 10 (right on time for Revival Night), and ends at sunrise on Sunday, March 31 (right on time for Easter brunch!)


Will there be a daily devotional?
Yes! You can follow along with our daily devotional by downloading or updating the Christ Fellowship App. If you prefer, you can also follow along with the devotional in PDF format (best for print).


How do I get notified when the daily devotional is live?

Are there resources available on prayer and fasting?
Yes! Throughout the fast, you’ll be encouraged spiritually through a daily devotional on the Christ Fellowship App and equipped practically with resources to help you establish long-term habits. Check back here regularly throughout the fast for a variety of resources!


How can I join in prayer?
In addition to your personal time of prayer throughout the fast, you can join others in prayer in a couple of ways!

  • Live Prayer on Instagram: Join our pastors for a time of prayer during the fast, happening Monday through Friday at noon on Instagram.
  • Prayer Feature in the Christ Fellowship App: Pray for others or share your own prayer request right in the Christ Fellowship App!
  • Prayer at Your Campus: Throughout the fast, you can share your prayer request on the prayer walls at your campus and/or join the midweek prayer gatherings during the fast.


Do I have to fast from food?
No! While many people will choose to do some type of fasting that involves giving up a type of food, the point of fasting is to simply give up something you depend on. Here are some ideas on other types of fasting. Remember, whatever your fast looks like, it’s not about what you’re giving up but what you're going to gain. Even if you decide not to fast at all, don’t let it stop you from having a time of intentional and extended prayer each day!
