Episode 22
Tuesday, 11 March, 2025
Growing in Grace: Fasting Matt. 4:1-11; Gal. 6:7-8; Matt. 6:15-18; What’s your experience with fasting in general?

What pitfalls in fasting are we instructed to avoid from the scripture? Why is it important to understand that fasting is not merely about abstaining from food, but rather about reliance on God? Or put it another way, how one must replace whatever you are removing. What practical steps can you take on a fast, and what particular purpose will this fast be aimed at or for? Make a plan. Start small. Keep each other accountable.
