We believe fasting is one of the most powerful spiritual disciplines available to us. Traditionally Christians fasted from sunrise to sunset every day throughout Lent, which may be something for us to aspire to, but doesn’t have to be the starting place for most of us. Below are three ways for all of us to jump in on as well as a number of helpful resources to inspire learning and growth around what fasting is all about.

NOTE: Although we might typically fast from eating, it doesn’t have to be; You may like to fast from watching tv, using social media, your phone, or anything you like!

  • Try fasting one day a week from sunrise to sunset. As a church we are inviting you to fast on Tuesdays so that you know you are not alone in giving it a go.

  • Try fasting for two days a week from sunrise to sunset. We suggest Tuesday and Thursday but pick which ever days work for you

  • Try fasting Monday, Wednesday and Friday, sunrise to sunset as a stretch goal
