Practicing the Way – Fasting (Old Jacksonville)

Practicing The Way Being an apprentice of Jesus of Nazareth involves ordering your life around three goals: be with Jesus, become like Jesus, and do what Jesus did. Practicing The Way is a compilation of the practices of Jesus. In these four weeks, we look at the Practice of Fasting. For over a thousand years, fasting was one of the central practices of the Way of Jesus. It was common practice for apprentices of Jesus. After all, Jesus began his life’s work with 40 days of fasting, a practice he continued throughout his lifetime. And he said, “Follow me.” Fasting is one of the most essential and powerful of all the practices of Jesus and one of the best ways we have to integrate our entire person, including our body, around God.
