40|50 Project: 40 Days To Heal A Nation’s Racial DivideSample

 Day 36: Review | Week 5, One Family in God

Check-in: We're in the home stretch. How are you? How has this time of fasting and prayer been going? What all has God done in revealing and transforming racism where you are? As we wrap up, we want to think of ways to set a memorial to God of this time and how we'll pass this testimony down from generation to generation. 

Let’s review Week 5: One Family in God

Here’s what we explored this week. What has God revealed to you each day?

• Day 30: Pick One: Is there any way within you that bows the knee to the pursuit of wealth over God and over valuing the lives that God has made? Pick one today: God or wealth. Who will you serve?  
• Day 31: Repairing the Breach:  Why isn’t the family of God leading the charge for reparations for people of African descent? Does the Church believe that chattel slavery and building America for free was acceptable? If someone like  Zaccheus steals from your family, you want restitution for your family. Are people of African descent not seen as part of the family?   
• Day 32: What Causes Division?: Can you see how division feeds racism? What, then, is our solution? How do we achieve unity and oneness?    
• Day 33: Jesus on Reconciliation:  Is there anyone who you are angry with or whom you know is angry with you that you need to be reconciled? Reach out today.   
• Day 34: Perfectly United: What would perfect unity look like around race relations in your country? Dream with God. What would the family of God look like perfectly united? 
• Day 35: I Am Willing:  How can you make these Sabbath observances part of your life going forward? How can you weekly unplug from work for income and set aside that time to commune with God, your family and community?
