First, fasting is often neglected as a regular practice for spiritual growth. Second, fasting is not mandated as a regular practice for spiritual growth.

Since fasting is not practiced very often by evangelical Christians, and there may be some confusion or questions about this topic, Dr. Sean Cole answers FOUR questions to help us grow in our understanding of fasting.

Question One: What is a fast? 

Question Two: What are the types of fasts?

Question Three: What are the wrong ways to fast?

Question Four: What are the proper purposes for Biblical fasting?
