    Fasting seems to be out of vogue today. What is Biblical fasting? Why should we fast? What should our attitude be when we fast? What should we expect?

    Before we go over our memory Scriptures I want to go over a true example of a mistake versus sin as an example of what the difference is and why the Lord looks upon the two differently.
