Greetings brethren,
I am curious, what do your churches teach about fasting? Is it actively encouraged among your congregation? Are corporate fasts ever organised?
I have seen little reformed literature that deals with the subject of fasting . . . it seems to be often practised in a rather strange way in some charismatic churches, but I would enjoy reading more about its true practise from the reformed perspective.
I do not ask anyone to discuss personal fasting practises, lest this take away from the fasts being purely unto the Lord, but I am curious what your churches teach about it.
Blessings,
Jie-huli
