Weekly Fasting Resources
​
These fasting resources are not a box to be checked, meaning, don't just go through the motions of completing the task, but use them to connect with Jesus the best you can. Keep it simple and make space for him to speak and have his way in your life. Think of these fasting resources as a way to start the conversation with God--they are just the beginning, not the end goal. Each week will have a different scripture, prayer and worship song that can help you encounter Jesus for yourself.
