Today, on Ash Wednesday, the first day of Lent, Christians all over the world will give something up to draw closer to God in the 40 days before Easter. A lot of people will give up chocolate, television, their morning cup of coffee. But what if this Lent you did something even greater? Not just fast, but pray. Not just give up chocolate, but learn to surrender to God completely. 

Join Hallow’s Lent Pray40 challenge alongside millions of others around the world guided by Mark Wahlberg, Jonathan Roumie, Fr. Mike Schmitz, and more! For 40 days, you’ll pray and meditate through the incredible spiritual classic He Leadeth Me.

“Not everything that happens is good, but everything that God allows to happen works for our good if we have faith in Him. We might suffer. We might go through pain. We might have to let go of things that aren’t good for us. But that’s what Lent’s all about. It’s about turning back to God, trusting that He knows what we need better than we know ourselves.” - Mark Wahlberg in Pray40

“The most transformative Lent of my life”

“The Hallow App has brought me a tremendous amount of peace that was not in my life before. I cannot tell you how many nights that I’ve turned to Hallow as I was struggling with the demon of insomnia that plagues my life … God has provided me such a source of peace within this app.”

"I am so grateful for this app. It is definitely helping me on my journey to surrender to God each day and learn more about Him so I can love like He did."

“Hallow has helped me, healed me, and is continuously healing me and inspiring me and bringing me closer to God-as I have always prayed and longed for. For so many years I was living in sin. Always restless, always searching, seeking God. Finally, I am on the journey of having a relationship with God!”

“This has been life-changing during Lent to listen each morning and start my day off with God’s word. Pray40 is transforming.”
