Fasting | Luke 4:1-4 - Audio

We all want to be like someone else—but what if the One we were made to become like is Jesus himself? Kicking off our new summer series, Living Like Jesus, Pastor Jared Stevens looks at the spiritual disciplines Jesus practiced throughout the book of Luke, starting with one many of us tend to avoid: fasting. Walking through Luke 4:1–4, Jared unpacks Jesus' 40 days in the wilderness and shows how fasting isn't about deprivation—it's about uncovering a deeper hunger that only Jesus can satisfy. From Old and New Testament examples of fasting to a personal story of how it led to a life-changing decision, this message lands on a simple but powerful truth: fasting moves us toward complete dependence on God and deeper intimacy with Jesus. Here's a couple key takeaways - Make space this week to practice fasting—even for a meal or part of a day—and pay attention to what it reveals about where you're really seeking satisfaction. - When you're tempted or struggling, fight back with Scripture, just like Jesus did in the wilderness. - Spend time asking God if there's something He's inviting you to repent of or surrender to Him.
