Fasting

When Jesus taught about fasting, He gave us instructions to follow “when” we fast… not “if” we fast (Matthew 6:16-18).  We invite you to fast with us every Wednesday until 5pm, not because Wednesday is more special than any other day, but because fasting together is powerful!  Plain and simple, we don’t eat food, but we do drink water.

Every day we crave physical food, and most of us feed this desire 2-3 times a day.  Whether we know it or not, we desperately long for spiritual food.  However, we can get so caught up in trying to satisfy our low-level, routine desires, that it can become difficult to obtain higher-level, spiritual desires.  By saying “NO” to our desire for physical food… we are demanding our bodies, souls, and spirits to say “YES” to something far greater… spiritual food!
