What happens to your spirit when you fast?

In this episode of The Faith of the Fathers, Karl Gessler sits down with Joe Roraff to discuss one of the most powerful and often neglected spiritual disciplines in the Christian life: fasting.

Joe shares the remarkable story of how his father's 21-day fast became a catalyst for his own spiritual transformation and pursuit of God. Together, Karl and Joe explore the purpose of fasting, common misconceptions surrounding it, and why so many believers struggle to make it a regular part of their walk with Christ.

The conversation covers practical challenges, hearing the voice of the Holy Spirit, spiritual sensitivity, breakthrough, and the cumulative impact of simple acts of obedience over time. Rather than viewing fasting as a religious obligation, Karl and Joe present it as an invitation to draw closer to God and create space for Him to work more deeply in our lives.

Whether you are considering your first fast or have practiced fasting for years, this conversation will encourage you to seek God with greater hunger and expectation.
