Wes McAdams: 3 Reasons Christians Need to Be Fasting

I’ve written about fasting before, so it’s nice to see another Christian writer touch on the subject in a practical and accessible way. Especially after a season usually given to excess, it’s good to consider denying self.

I realize the subject of fasting is not a popular thing to talk about, but that is exactly why we need to discuss it. Few biblical practices are neglected in the church today like fasting. Here are three reasons why we all need to be fasting.

1. We need to fast because we need to be devoted to prayer.
2. We need to fast because we need to consider what we are truly hungry for.
3. We need to fast because we believe in restoring New Testament Christianity.
