TV Fast! – Grow your faith by watching TV?! 📺

It’s true. You can watch TV and grow your faith at the same time!

CHRISTIAN FASTING
Fasting in the Christian faith isn’t just an exercise in self–discipline or suffering, it’s having less of something SO THAT you can have more of God. So since fasting is less about the means and more about the end result, I decided to get creative and try 7 different fasts in 7 weeks to see how each one affected my faith.

TV FAST
This week in my 7 Fast in 7 Weeks I’m doing a TV Fast, but there’s a twist. Instead of no TV I’ve challenged myself to match the time I spend watching television, minute–for–minute, with time spent reading Scripture.

But not only did I end up reading a lot of Scripture this week during my television fast, there were a few other surprising benefits from limiting my TV intake.

ABOUT WHAT JESUS SAYS ABOUT
I make the What Jesus Says About channel so you can respond to what Jesus says about topics important to you.

That’s it. No hard sell. No 30 minute sermon. Just Jesus speaking for himself so you can respond for yourself. All of this is made possible by THRED, an organization committed to open and honest conversations about life, faith, and Jesus.

ABOUT ME
I’m a husband. I’m a father through adoption and foster care. I’m also a pastor of a church. My life personal life mission is to “do whatever it takes so as many as possible can see Jesus”. This channel is one of the ways I live that out. <br> <h3>Auto Generated Captions</h3>

BEVERAGE FAST – What is it and why you should do one!

BEVERAGE FAST
For the third fast in my 7 Fasts In 7 Weeks, I’ll be doing a Beverage Fast, meaning no beverages of any kind except for good, ol’ fashioned, pure water. Not only will I be flushing toxins from my body, but I’ll also be flushing contaminates from my spirit, as well. Every time I take a drink of water during my Beverage Fast, I’ll recite the words of Psalm 51:10, “Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.”

Surprisingly, repeating the verse over and over didn’t become mindless repetition. Instead, it began to take on a whole new meaning.

How to do a SHOPPING FAST! 🛒

What is a Shopping Fast and how do you do it?

So since fasting is less about the means and more about the end result, I decided to get creative and try 7 different fasts in 7 weeks to see how each one affected my faith.

For the second week of my 7 Fasts in 7 Weeks I’m doing a Shopping Fast.

This means no shopping, period. Like a “Buy Nothing” week, this week I did no online shopping, no in-person shopping, and no deliveries. But, since this is about starting something just as much as it is about stopping something, each day of the Shopping Fast I also gave away $20 every day to someone as a way of living out Jesus’ command to give (Luke 12:33).

I expected the Shopping Fast to make me more generous, but I didn’t expect how it changed the way I look at our culture.

What happened on my RADIO FAST! 📻

What if fasting wasn’t just about food?

CHRISTIAN FASTING
Fasting in the Christian faith isn’t just an exercise in self–discipline or suffering, it’s having less of something SO THAT you can have more of God. So since fasting is less about the means and more about the end result, I decided to get creative and try 7 different fasts in 7 weeks to see how each one affected my faith.

WEEK 1: RADIO FAST
In week 1 of my 7 Fasts in 7 Weeks, I decided to start easy and do a Radio Fast. Meaning no music, no podcasts, and no audio books! And in that newfound silence I would “be still” with God and–as an added challenge–sing a praise song every time I accidentally reached for the radio dial.

I had no idea just how much singing I would end up doing.

I got together with non-Christians and Christians to hear their reaction to what Jesus says about money.

2) Where have you invested the most money?
3) Can you change your heart by changing where you spend your money?
