“Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.”

Matthew 11:28-30 The Message

Do you constantly worry about the future? Do you find your brain won't slow down to appreciate the present moment and that you are always on guard for a problem to arise? Meditating will radically change your brain by reducing your stress and anxiety.

It has been scientifically proven!

A recent study by Standford University found that 5 minutes of breathwork and mindfulness meditation improved mood and reduced anxiety.

I'm so excited to bring you this challenge to spend 6 minutes a day meditating on God's word. It will help you memorize scripture, focus on the present moment, and positively impact your outlook on life.

Seriously, it's only 6 minutes a day!

The challenge is 40 days. 40 days is enough time to develop mental clarity and decrease anxiety and depression. These things together have the ability to enhance your sleep which does wonders for your physical health. Plus, we all know that 40 is very biblical number so we are going to trust God to transform and renew our mind as only He can do. You will be transformed so much that, by the end of the challenge, you will crave that 6 minutes to get alone with the Lord.

Why is it called First Forty?

Because the first time I offered the challenge it began January 1st, 2025. We gave the Lord the first fruits of our year-in this case, the first 40 days. (Don't worry if you aren't starting on Jan 1st. The best thing to do is just start! You will never "find the time" instead, you must "make the time.")

In just 6 minutes a day you will meditate on God's word by listening to a guided meditation. Each meditation is based on scripture and will help you to memorize scripture, deepen your relationship with God, and reduce stress and anxiety.

All you have to do is hit play and listen. And the best part is, it's totally free. Just type in $0 to get into the challenge.

As a bonus, I'm giving you the program for 3 months so that you have plenty of time to finish the challenge and can even complete it twice.

The day you sign up you will get a confirmation email and an email with the first meditation. Every day you have the option to read the email first or to click straight through to get started listening to your guided meditation.

Who knows what God will bless you with when you give him your time and attention? But we do know the Bible says this...

so is my word that goes out from my mouth:
It will not return to me empty,
but will accomplish what I desire
and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.

Isaiah 55:11

I am so excited for you to start this journey!

Love,

Callie
