In part two of our miniseries, "Ten Keys to Spiritual Growth," we’re diving into the powerful, often-overlooked discipline of fasting.  We’ll talk about how fasting isn’t just about giving up food, it’s about refocusing, clearing away distractions, and drawing closer to God.  This episode walks through practical ways to try fasting, drawing from examples in Scripture, like Jesus in the wilderness
(Matthew 4:1-2) and the early church (Acts 13:2-3), where fasting and prayer brought deeper connection and clarity.
 
We’ll also unpack how fasting helps us see what really has control over us.  Maybe it’s food, social media, or even daily habits or other things that subtly take our focus off what matters most. Through fasting, we learn self-control, aligning our priorities to depend more on God, as Galatians 5:17 teaches us about the battle between flesh and Spirit.  I’ll also share practical tips for starting small, because it doesn’t have to be daunting.
 
Finally, we’ll talk about fasting’s ability to make us stronger and more spiritually clear, as we begin to crave God more than anything else.  If you’ve ever thought about trying fasting but weren’t sure how, or if it’s worth
it, join me for a down-to-earth look at this timeless practice.  It’s a tool that, if practiced intentionally,
can deepen your faith and focus like few others.
 
We will also look at four other keys to spiritual growth.
