Why did Jesus expect His followers to fast—and what if we've misunderstood it all along?
For many Christians, fasting feels intimidating, outdated, or simply unnecessary. But throughout Scripture, fasting was never about earning God's favor or proving your spirituality. It was about creating space to seek God with greater dependence, humility, and intentionality.
In this conversation, Pastor James explores why Jesus said "when you fast," what fasting actually changes, how spiritual disciplines can quietly become empty routines, and why practices like fasting still matter in a culture built around comfort and instant gratification.
Whether you've fasted for years or have never considered it before, this episode will challenge you to think less about giving something up—and more about what God may want to do within you.
