About this episode

Alex Seeley discusses the importance of fasting and its impact on our relationship with the Holy Spirit.

Alex Seeley is a Bible teacher, author, and co-founder of the Belonging Co. here in Nashville, and this is her 3rd time on the show. As we continue talking about the spiritual discipline of fasting, she is such a wise voice to help us understand why this practice really makes a difference in our relationship with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit and she’s also helping us better understand specifically our relationship with Holy Spirit. Her next book, which comes out tomorrow, is called The Divine Counselor and is about just that— understanding we have direct access to the greatest helper, teacher, advocate, and counselor. After you listen, head over to spirituallystronger.com where we can continue to unpack this conversation together AND we want to invite you to put this spiritual discipline into practice with us on Tuesday, April 14th. We’re going to have a That Sounds Fun: Spiritually Stronger Day of Fasting, so together as a community, we can spend the day fasting and praying. It’s important to us that we not just talk about how powerful these rhythms are, but actually give you a chance to practice them. View the show notes here . . . .
