The Christian discipline of fasting

We are in a season of prayer and fasting for church planting and evangelism in the Lutheran Church of Australia and New Zealand. 

This sermon is an introduction to the Christian discipline of fasting. Fasting is giving up something good in order to pursue something better. Fasting is a way to focus our prayers, learn to depend more fully on God, reveal and repent of our idolatries, and have our spiritual ears open to hearing the voice of the Spirit.

This sermon was preached at Pakenham Lakeside Church on Sunday 27th October 2019.

Enjoy!
