Today’s Show Notes:
Linnea Morris has a discussion with Pastor Chad and Pastor Chazz about fasting: What is it? What does the Bible say about fasting? Why is it important? And why does it feel so foreign to us as Americans? How often do we need to fast on a regular basis? How do we prevent it from becoming a robotic act? Listen to hear the discussion!
