Some of us fast for a day in a week, so we can discipline ourselves, forfeit a meal so we can spend time meaningfully with God. It is a good idea from time to time to take a fast from our phones too. Instead we can spend time meaningfully with our families and with other people.

Ready To Serve

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Feb 1, 2026

The entire class would gather around the cage and watch in completely absorbed and attentive ...read more
