Focus 40

Focus 40, 2013 takes place February 20–March 31, 2013. The 2013 prayer and fasting focus will observe the theme: “Extreme Love” based on the Great Commandment of Jesus. The Apostle Paul expressed it this way, “In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace that he lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding” (Ephesians 1:7-8, NIV).

When Jesus was asked what was the greatest commandment in all of the law he replied, “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments” (Matthew 22:36-40 NIV).

The Transformation Team has produced a wide range of resources available to you and your church to help you observe these 40 days of prayer and fasting, leading up to Easter 2013. Together we anticipate experiencing God’s “Extreme Love.”

Resources and promotional material will be available in both English and Spanish on this website. Begin planning now to help your congregation experience the “Extreme Love” of our God this Easter season.
