About this listen
In a world that celebrates busyness and consumption, Jesus teaches that fasting and rest are essential spiritual disciplines for deeper intimacy with God. True fasting isn't about public displays of piety but creating space for communion with God and developing compassion for others. Biblical rest goes beyond mere physical recuperation to spiritual renewal, with Jesus Himself being our ultimate Sabbath rest. Both disciplines require intentionality and counter-cultural choices in our achievement-driven society. By incorporating fasting (from food or other things that control us) and intentional rest into our lives, we create space for God to work in our hearts and find ourselves more aware of His presence.
