In this episode, Adam and Ethan reflect on the 4-day fast they did last week. Adam had a family emergency that kept him from joining the group's celebratory meal, describing how caring for his injured grandson fostered deeper spiritual dependence and empathy. They also dig into C.S. Lewis's "Abolition of Man," discussing how modern education shapes moral character and emphasizing the importance of reading and critical thinking in personal growth.
