Today’s mission is to tell someone how the past 40 days have impacted in your life.  Shout it out to anyone that will listen – your mom, your dad, your youth pastor, your best friend.

Post it on Twitter, Facebook, or Snapchat.  Spend some time at the lunchroom table telling your friends about your experience. 

Have dinner with your family tonight and share your favorite part of the 40 days and how it has impacted your life.  Tell them how this challenge has helped you grow as a follower of Jesus Christ. 

Before you go to bed make sure to post something on the 40 Days of Relentless Facebook page.

REVEAL:

It’s hard to believe that we are on the final stretch of our 40 days!  If you haven’t shared a story on Facebook at www.facebook.com/40restless take some time today and share a story!

Today’s challenge is to invest in one of your friends that you have been praying for by giving them a Bible.  This is a huge investment.  You may give them one of your Bibles or you may purchase a Bible for them.

Make sure you take some time and highlight some of your favorite Bible verses in the Bible.  Also, write a note inside the front cover letting them know how much you care about them!

This may be the greatest gift that your friend has ever received.  This may be the greatest gift you’ve ever given!!

REFLECT:

How was your day? How did it feel to give a Bible? What did you learn?

Today’s target is your pastor.  Take some time today to write an encouraging note or email telling one (or all) of our amazing staff how grateful you are for them.

Thank them for a specific time where they encouraged you.  Tell them how grateful you are they and their family is here with us.  Give them praise for the leadership.

Thank them for taking time to prepare messages.  Let them know you are praying for them.  Make sure you do your thank you in writing so they will always have it with them!

How was your day? Did you write a note today? What did you learn?

DAY 34: PAY IT FORWARD

 

REFRESH:

Read: Acts 6 & 7

Relate: What does this passage say about God? How does this apply to my life?

Respond: Take a moment and write your thoughts to God.

REVEAL:

Today is about doing something nice for someone in hopes that they will in turn do something nice for someone else – thus pay it forward.

As you go about your day look for something nice that you can do for someone, do it, and when they say, “Thank You” you say, “Would you consider doing something nice for someone else?”

The key here is to give yourself away and ask for nothing in return except that they might pay it forward.  Try and do this all day long – at school, home, baseball field, or wherever you might be! 

This is going to be another fun day of loving on people!  Make sure to share your stories at www.facebook.com/40relentless!

REFLECT:

How was your day? Did anyone pay it forward? What did you learn?

DAY 29: ROCK N' ROLL

REFRESH:

Read: Mark 15

Relate: What does this passage say about God? How does this apply to my life?

Respond: Take a moment and write your thoughts to God.

REVEAL:

With Easter just around the corner one can’t help but think about the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.  When Jesus died he was placed in a borrowed tomb and a huge rock was rolled in front of the grave.

As Jesus conquered death and rose from the grave nothing could keep Him in the grave – not even a huge rock! Just like Jesus busted out of the grave his death and resurrection destroys the sin that keeps us from God. 

As you leave the house today find a rock and put it in your pocket. Place the rock on your desk and as people ask you why you have the rock tell them about Christ’s death and resurrection.  If you want, carry an extra rock and give it to one of your friends and share it’s meaning with them.

REFLECT:

How was your day? What did you see? What did you learn?

DAY 28: 3x5 CARD

REFRESH:

Read: Mark 14

Relate: What does this passage say about God? How does this apply to my life?

Respond: Take a moment and write your thoughts to God.

REVEAL:

Today’s goal is to encourage others by sharing God’s Word with them. As you spend time finding refreshment in God’s Word this morning make note of a few verses and write each one down on a separate 3x5 card. 

As you go throughout your day look for ways that you can share one of your 3x5 cards with someone to encourage them.

Make sure to keep your eyes open and look for ways you can bless others by sharing God’s Word.  How exciting it is to see someone’s day lifted because of God’s Word!  That’s exciting stuff!

Keep your eyes open and have fun sharing God’s Word with others!

REFLECT:

How was your day? Did you surprise anyone today? What did you learn?

Moms are really special ladies and today is all about them!  You are to take today and do something special for your mom or step-mom! 

Take your mom out to lunch or make a card for your mom telling her you love her.  Possibly do a chore for her like folding laundry, washing dishes, cleaning the house. 

Maybe take some time to give her a manicure and pedicure! Make her feel like a queen for a day!!

If you don’t have a relationship with your mom, choose a mom-like figure that has influenced your life do something special for her.

How was your day? How’s was your mom’s day? What did you learn?
