Talk Tuesday - Are you hearing from God?

Are you hearing from God lately? Life sometimes gets so busy that we don’t have time for God. We come home tired from work and all we want to do is look at TV or surf the internet. We hardly have any quiet time. We are always being entertained. What would happen if we stopped all the media and spent time listening to God? Do you think He would speak to us? Do you think we could hear His voice? How about going on a media fast for one week? Yes, no facebook, no twitter, no internet, no radio and no TV. For one week. I know this is going to be hard for some of you (it was hard for me and my wife) but I do believe that God wants a deeper relationship with us but we have to cut out all the noise first. That is why we are giving you a week’s notice before we offer ‘The Challenge’ to you. So starting next week Tuesday we are going on a media fast for one week. If you are going to take up ‘The Challenge’ tell us by posting a comment. Challenge your friends to join us and let’s see what God has to say.

Thanks! Im in ... Total Confirmation! Read the message this morning and I heard God say: "Are you going to take them up on it?" Well.. If that isn't hearing from God, then I don't know what is. :)

I am up for the challenge and expecting great things...

Away, away,away from the noise, alone with you. Away, away to hear your voice and meet with you...

I have a question though, I work in the office and i have to use the computer for 7 hours everyday from tuesday to friday. Will this consider as partial fasting? I don't watch tv because i don't own a tv for almost 3 years now but I own a laptop and spent 3 to 4 hours surfing the net almost everyday.

Hey Everyone,

Thanks for joining us on the media fast! The time you spend at work does not count. The purpose of this is to use our 'at-home, down time' to be still and seek the Lord.

Be blessed,
Andrew & Tash
