"You can pray without fasting but you absolutely cannot fast without praying!" This week guest speaker Nick Payne talks about fasting's effect on our prayers.

It isn't abstinence. It isn't a restricted diet. So what is it? Fasting is a practice aimed at offering our entire selves to God so that He can transform us into the image of Jesus!
