What is the least talked about spiritual discipline among Christians today? There may be a debate, but we'd argue that it is probably fasting. We are "quick" to ignore fasting. Isn't that ironic?
On today’s podcast, Pastor Derek and Pastor Jackie talk through the spiritual discipline of fasting. We go through all of Scripture to find examples of biblical fasting, then break down the main purpose of fasting and how we as believers should go about fasting today.
