If fasting feels intimidating, outdated, or optional, you’re not alone and Scripture has more to say than you might think. In this episode of the Veritas Equipping Podcast, Sam, Michael, Richard, and Jake talk through what fasting is, why it matters, and how Christians can practice it with clarity and purpose. We explore the biblical foundations of fasting, address common misconceptions, and share honest reflections on why this discipline has often been neglected in the church. Whether you’re brand new to fasting, unsure where to start, or longing for deeper dependence on God, this conversation invites you to see fasting not as a legalistic burden but as a gracious means of pursuing Christ together.
