Spiritual Fasting is the Key to Happiness


Listen Later

If you are looking for happiness then consider spiritual fasting. Follow Beth in this episode as she explains how spiritual fasting can help you achieve goals of happiness and more.

“If feeling our hunger can awaken our spiritual senses,

never feeling hunger can dull them.” - Christopher West

In today’s episode, Beth is discussing the second pillar of Lent: Spiritual Fasting. Through the redemptive suffering of spiritual fasting, we can win souls for the Lord and deepen our relationship with Christ… all while reaching our weight loss goals. 

Do you want to be rich, happy, and thin? Beth shares some interesting insights on that desire, and the indispensable role of spiritual fasting in achieving it. She also shares why dieting doesn’t work, and uses the example of a pregnant mother to emphasize the power of willingly delaying gratification for the good of someone else.

Whether you’re on a specialized diet for health reasons, or want to experience the joy of feasting more fully, Spiritual Fasting is the key to finding happiness in every area of life. Who wouldn’t want that?

Help Beth reach her goal of bringing 1 Million Catholics back to the Church:
