Hunger for God | Week 4

from AGC Classroom Hosted by Ankeny Gospel Church

The practice of fasting and standing with the poor. In a world full of distraction and constant consumption, fasting is God’s gracious invitation to deepen our hunger for Him. This 5-week class will explore the biblical, theological, and practical foundations of fasting as a means of grace, not an empty ritual or a way to earn God’s favor, but a joyful surrender that awakens our hearts to the presence and power of Christ. Drawing from authors like John Piper, Scot McKnight, Dallas Willard, and Richard Foster, we will recover fasting as a vital spiritual practice that leads not to deprivation, but to deeper satisfaction in God. Come discover how fasting joins the body and soul in longing for God’s kingdom, interceding in prayer, resisting temptation, and cultivating spiritual freedom.
