Note générale : |
Our appetites dictate the direction of our lives - wether it be the cravings of our stomachs, the passionate desire for possessions or power, or the longings ofour spirits for God. But for the Christian, the hunger for anything besides God can be an archenemy, while our hunger for God - and Him alone - is the only thing that will bring victory. Do you have that hunger for Him ? |

Résumé : |
Between the dangers of self-denial and self-indulgence is this path of pleasant pain called fasting. It is the path the author invites you to travel in this book. For when God is the supreme hunger of your heart, He will be supreme in everything. And when you are most satisfied in Him, He will be most glorified in you. |
