Why not 21?

Chris Reeder on October 29th, 2009

Habit. That was my challenge to Revolution last night. To form a habit of spending time in God’s Word and in prayer. I challenged them do this leading into our first communion gathering as a church on November 25th. For 21 days, starting November 1st… join with us in this challenge… ya up for it???

hab * it
–noun

1. an acquired behavior pattern regularly followed until it has become almost involuntary
2. customary practice or use
3. a dominant or regular disposition or tendency; prevailing character or quality
4. the characteristic form, aspect, mode of growth, etc., of an organism
5. the attire worn by a rider of a saddle horse (ok… not sure why I included this one)
6. addiction

Welcome to the next 21 days. We believe that if you commit to the next 21 days, your life will be radically transformed. It’s not hard, it doesn’t take a long time, but it will take the next 21 days. Starting November 1^st, you will have 21 days, the choice is yours…
