By Charles Thompson III
I have led the 40 Days of Purpose 3 times in the past 3 years and it impacted my life greatly. But, its impact is no comparison to the change the 40 Days of Community brought within. I have learned how to love God and others better! It also helped me administer church discipline better as a pastor in a way which is more Christ-like. The book is also set-up better than the Purpose Driven Life was. The 40 Days of Community workbook has the devotionals, journal, and small group notes included. You get three books for one! The book covers.... 1.)We're Compelled to Love God's Family 2.)We're Commissioned to Reach Out Together 3.)We're Chosen to Fellowship Together 4.)We're Connected to Grow Together 5.) We're called to Serve Together and 6.)We're Created to Worship Together.
