Why do Christians fail in their discipleship? Perhaps it is a neglect of fasting. This ancient discipline was a core practice of the Jewish people, taken up by Jesus himself, who taught it to his disciples, and we are encouraged to follow their example. The discipline of fasting is an expression of our longing for more of God, the intention to grow in grace, and a willingness to deny ourselves anything that might hinder the life of discipleship. This guide is written for ordinary people who are hungry for greater intimacy with the Father, a deeper relationship with Jesus, a fuller experience of the Spirit, a richer experience of community, and a more challenging life of mission.
