Fasting (Personal Spiritual Disciplines Series)

When Jesus talks about fasting, He says, "When you fast..." The assumption is that you will fast. But of the spiritual disciplines, this is perhaps the least utilized one in Christian circles. And Scripture does help us to understand fasting. To the best of my knowledge, there is no passage that teaches exactly what fasting does, exactly how it works, and exactly how it affects our spiritual lives. However, it is possible to discern these things (more or less) by extrapolating from stories and teachings in the Bible where fasting is mentioned. Note: This teaching was recorded on 10-24-2021.
