Why We Fast: Reconnecting with the Divine

Friday Mass. 3.07.25.

In today's homily, I reflect on a powerful insight from Bishop Barron about the transformative role of fasting in our spiritual lives. I explore how fasting reveals our deep hunger for God and how it highlights our dependence on Him. As we approach Lent, I'll discuss the true purpose of fasting, praying, and giving alms—it's not just about ritual but about experiencing the profound joy and freedom that comes from drawing closer to God. Join me in this exploration of spiritual growth and understanding.
