Fasting: A Launching Point for 2021

It would be easy for us to place our hope in 2021. After all, it’s a new year, so life must improve—2021 can’t be as bad as 2020. This is a real temptation, but the start of a new year is not a solid source of hope. To prove this, we simply return to this time last year – not just the start of a new year but the start of a new decade. Remember the anticipation, the joy…look how that turned out. Does following Jesus offer any type of solid launching point for 2021? We discuss an ancient, often overlooked and even neglected practice that provides a solid launching point for 2021, whether you follow Jesus or not.
