Fasting
Immerse yourself in the spiritual journey of "Fasting," a short pamphlet exploring the ancient Christian practice as viewed through the lens of the Coptic Orthodox Church. With a blend of biblical narratives and theological insights, this guide invites believers and seekers alike to experience the transformative power of fasting.
"Fasting is a calling to see God," begins the pamphlet, addressing the innate questions about the purpose and necessity of this discipline, far from a mere abstention from food.
Journey through the experiences of Moses and Elijah, whose mountaintops during periods of fasting serve as compelling invitations to forge a deeper connection with God. Witness the Transfiguration of Christ and discover how fasting can lead to moments of encounters with God's glory.
Within these pages, fasting emerges as a celebration, a voluntary cross of love and sacrifice, and offering a taste of heavenly life here on earth.
Embark on this transformative journey, whether you are seeking to deepen your faith or simply curious about the spiritual disciplines of the early church. Allow "Fasting" to guide you towards a personal encounter with the Lord Jesus Christ, redefining your understanding of this sacred practice. Join a solemn assembly and sanctify your life as an offering, echoing Moses' plea: "Show me your glory."
