"Fasting is an opportunity for feasting on God."

This past Sunday, we watched the video portion for the lesson concerning Christian "fasting". Next Sunday, June 7th, we will continue with the chapter on fasting by doing the suggested Bible Study in your participant's guide. You might want to consider reading the daily suggested Bible readings in your guide and perhaps practice one of Foster's "Ideas for Fasting" found on page 40 and 41 of our guide.

Richard's recommendations for other things to read include:
Something old: Sermon #27, Discourse on the Sermon on the Mount, Matt. 6-16-18 by John Wesley; and
Something New: God's Chosen Fast by Arthur Wallis

Here are some of the questions we discussed this past Sunday if you would like to reflect before our next meeting:

How does Christian fasting differ from a hunger strike and fasting for health?
What does it mean to you to learn to feast on God?
What have you learned from your failures with fasting?
What have you learned from your successes?

Hope to see you all this Sunday!
