About this listen

In this episode of Bringing Hope and Freedom, Pastor Kirk and Matt dive deep into one of the most misunderstood spiritual disciplines — fasting. What does it really mean to fast? Why do Christians fast? And does fasting always have to mean giving up food? Pastor Kirk explains the biblical foundations of fasting, from Joel 2 to Isaiah, showing how fasting is not just about denying ourselves — it’s about turning our hearts back to God, humbling ourselves, and learning obedience through discipline. Matt shares honest questions many believers wrestle with — how to fast properly, how to balance prayer and work, and what it means to live out a spiritual lifestyle of sacrifice and self-control. Together, they explore:

Key Topics:

The difference between corporate and personal fasting
Why God desires obedience, not sacrifice
How fasting helps break selfishness and pride
Building a lifestyle of fasting and prayer
How leaders can model spiritual discipline without pride
Why fasting positions you to hear God and build character

This practical and powerful conversation reminds us that fasting isn’t about impressing God — it’s about aligning with Him. When we fast, we silence our flesh so our spirit can truly listen.
