Fasting has become a popular fad for people employing a new diet, but for religious people and those in search of God, fasting takes on a depth of spiritual meaning. Today I sit down with Fr. Peter Adrian, Norbertine priest and chef, to discuss why Christians fast during Lent, the ancient Christian traditions of fasting, the physical and spiritual benefits of fasting, the importance of prudence, and why Christians ought to fast intentionally.

4:50 The Right End of Fasting
I’ve done a 54 hour fast (water only), I can tell you it was the most fun thing I’ve ever done. Then I had an involuntary fast of 7 days no food (when I had COVID)
This is so important! I find that pride always rears its ugly head when I fast. It’s not even necessarily food related. It’s like my flesh revolting from the assault.
Fasting is easy I'm houseless. People complain to much no drugs needed.
📜Jeremiah.7:1This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord: 2“Stand at the gate of the Lord’s house and there proclaim this message:
“ ‘Hear the word of the Lord, all you people of Judah who come through these gates to worship the Lord.
3This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: Reform your ways and your actions, and I will let you live in this place.
4Do not trust in deceptive words and say, “This is the temple of the Lord, the temple of the Lord, the temple of the Lord!”
...17Do you not see what they are doing in the towns of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?
18The children gather wood, the fathers light the fire, and the women knead the dough and make cakes to offer to the Queen of Heaven.
They pour out drink offerings to other gods to arouse my anger.
19But am I the one they are provoking? declares the Lord. Are they not rather harming themselves, to their own shame?
📜Ecclesiastes.1:8All things are wearisome, more than one can say.
The eye never has enough of seeing, nor the ear its fill of hearing.
9What has been will be again,
what has been done will be done again;
there is nothing new under the sun.
10Is there anything of which one can say,
“Look! This is something new”?
It was here already, long ago;
it was here before our time.
📜1Corinthians.10:11These things happened to them as examples and were written down as warnings for us, on whom the culmination of the ages has come.
12So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don’t fall!
13No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind.
And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.
14Therefore, my dear friends, flee from idolatry.
📜Mark.13:23But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things.
