What is Fasting, Do I Fast, And When Do I Fast?

Leviticus 16:29-31; Psalm 109:21-27; Daniel 9:1-4; Matthew 4:1-4, 6:16-18; Acts 14:23

We live in a self-indulgent world. Everybody wants what is bigger, better, and badder! Our mottos are "Go for the gusto," "More is better," and "Can you supersize that?" In the biblical practice of fasting, less is more, and to lose one's life for Christ is to save it and gain the most.
