Fasting is key to our spiritual life — and growing closer to God by denying ourselves. It is also easier said than done … especially with access to so much wonderful salt, sugar, carbs and meat!
We get asked all the time about how to fast. We cover the basics of fasting in the most-downloaded 40 Days for Life podcast episode.
But today, we have a new podcast to help you decide what is prudent and healthy when fasting.
