A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

God created the human body as a finely tuned instrument of enormous power, but it requires fuel to operate. To make sure the body gets enough fuel, God created in us an appetite for food, which we call hunger. So why would we ever ignore our hunger and choose not to eat? Going without food for spiritual reasons is called fasting, a spiritual discipline with a long and important history in Christianity. When accompanied by earnest prayer, fasting demonstrates our sincerity to God. In The Beginner's Guide to Fasting, beloved teacher - theologian Elmer Towns introduces the basics to those who may have never fasted before, and reviews the fundamentals for seasoned intercessors. Dr. Towns gives an overview of fasting from the Old and New Testaments, and answers questions about fasting related to physical health, social interaction, spiritual warfare and much more. The Beginner's Guide to Fasting is an essential handbook for all who long to draw closer to God through biblical spiritual disciplines.
