HISTORY OF 40DC
Based on Matthew 6:33-34, the 40 Days of Change Online (40DC) is a private Christian social networking (or Ning) community that offers interactive and practical life application training to its community members. Through the group-version of the 40-Day (Change) Challenge, which is offered three times year, along with other "destiny and change-focused" products and services, we are able to meet the spiritual, emotional and relational needs of current and future destiny seekers who strive daily for maturity in Christ. The "mandate from God" regarding the 40-Day (Change)Challenge came on the night of Thursday, April 30, 2009, when God impressed upon me Minister Jaketha:
"To spend the next 40 days not worrying about her job, home, car and family issues but rather focus her time 'hitting the ground running' toward select goals that He has had in place for her."
In other words, God was calling her to focus on her destiny along with renewing her relationship with Him. Just weeks before the 3rd Challenge, God impressed followed a confirmation from a friend two weeks later to open a private community for ministering to other weary and heavy-laden Christians using the 40-Day Challenge. Both the Challenges and the Community provide a means of helping Christians identify, clarify and walk in their purpose.
The 40 Days of Change online community was birthed on August 29, 2009 and held its first virtual 40-Day Challenge (for groups) from August 31st through October 9th of the same year. The next group Challenge begins January 4, 2010.
