Join host Dan and Pastor Blake of Bedrock Church in Sarasota for the premiere episode of the Applied Podcast! In this insightful conversation, Pastor Blake shares his personal journey to faith and dives deep into the spiritual discipline of fasting.
Discover the biblical foundations of fasting, why it's more than just a health trend, and how it can transform your spiritual walk. Learn the difference between cultural fasting for health benefits and true spiritual fasting as practiced throughout both the Old and New Testaments.
Pastor Blake explains how fasting isn't about deprivation but about redirecting your focus toward God and using physical cues to strengthen your spiritual connection. Perfect timing as Bedrock Church embarks on 21 days of fasting leading up to Easter Sunday!
ABOUT PASTOR BLAKE: Growing up in a non-Christian home in Sarasota, Florida, Pastor Blake found his faith in his early 20s after attending youth group in high school and later Liberty University. Now 38 years young with four children, he leads Bedrock Church in Sarasota.
