Fasting is among the most ancient practices of the Christian faith. Jesus fasted regularly, and the church for generations would not have conceived of the Way of Jesus without regular fasting. So what has happened to the practice today? Is fasting to be jettisoned as religious legalism? And if practiced, why?
As a church with a value and rhythm of feasting, we want to also explore the invitation to a regular rhythm of fasting. While the world has incorporated fasting in its way, studying the Scriptures, church history, and the life of Jesus, we will learn what it looks like to practice fasting in the Way of Jesus.
