Episode 1: What Is Fasting, Anyway?

In the first episode of What Do You Wanna Know?, Pastor David Martin and Venus Griffith tackle one of the most misunderstood spiritual practices in the Christian life: fasting.

As Great Oaks Fellowship prepares for a season of fasting, this conversation addresses what fasting actually is, what it isn’t, and why Jesus speaks about it as a normal part of following Him. This episode reframes fasting not as punishment or pressure, but as positioning ourselves to hear God clearly and grow in dependence on Him.

Scripture referenced:
Matthew 6:16–18, Matthew 9:15, Hebrews 4:12, Daniel 1
