Hungry for God? Fasting’s Power in Proverbs 27:7

  • Summary

  • Jonny Hanson and Andy Lamb introduce the theme of fasting with a reflective reading of Proverbs 27:7: “One who is full loathes honey from the comb, but to the hungry even what is bitter tastes sweet.” This scripture frames fasting as a way to cultivate spiritual hunger, transforming the challenge of abstinence into a sweet opportunity for deeper connection with God. Jonny and Andy draw from their 72-hour fast, sharing how it sharpened their prayer life and mental clarity. They prompt listeners to ask, “What ‘honey’ are you overlooking in your fullness?” This segment sets up the episode’s exploration of fasting’s biblical roots, its spiritual and health benefits, and its power to foster a closer walk with God through discipline and community support.Please check out FULL EPISODES, LIKE and SUBSCRIBE to Untrained Philosophical Discussionists on Spotify, Apple, YouTube, Instagram and TikTok and X (twitter).Join us now on Patreon where members get access to early and bonus episodes, merch drops and much more! https://www.patreon.com/c/UPDPodcastWe pray that you have a deep and fulfilling relationship with Jesus and He blesses you all the days of your life!
