Lent: Beyond Social Media – The Discipline of Fasting with Jay Thomas
Manage episode 469617487 series 3365493
Lent is more than giving up social media—it’s a season of discipline, abstinence, and reliance on God. In this episode, we explore the history of Lent, common misconceptions, and the purpose of fasting. True fasting disciplines both body and soul, teaching us to depend on God rather than our most basic needs. If we can’t give up a meal for Christ, how can we give up our lives? Join us as we reflect on Jesus’ 40 days in the wilderness and what it means to live by every word from the mouth of God.
