April 15: Fasting – Pilgrimage of Resurrection(A Creative Journey through the Easter Season)

Word for Today: Fasting



Fasting isn’t just for its own sake….Fasting is really an invitation to authentic freedom.

—Christine Valters Paintner, The Soul of a Pilgrim: Eight Practices for the Journey Within
