Our series is Means of Grace. In it, we will be exploring spiritual practices that help us grow in discipleship. The second of these is “Fast with a Purpose” and looks at the act of fasting. How should we fast? What is expected from us when we do? What is the purpose of fasting? Can we make it a regular part of our lives? As we explore how we interact with God, we grow in faith and love.

Our scripture reading for today comes from Joel 2:12-17, Acts 14:21-23, and Matthew 6:16-18.

“With a Purpose” continues in the Following God series. We look again at serving selfishly versus selflessly. What kind of fast does God want? Prayer? Worship? How do we shine a light or be the salt? How do we do anything? We explore what it takes when we are following God.

Our scripture readings for today come from Isaiah 58:1-12 and Matthew 5:13-20.
