Fasting isn't just about giving something up- it's about making space for something deeper.
In this episode, Pastors Micah and Shireen talk about the 40-day season of Lent, rooted in Jesus’ time in the wilderness. It’s a time of fasting, yes—but also of reflection, repentance, and rediscovering grace. They unpack why Lent matters—not to make us feel bad about our sin, but to help us see the depth of grace we often forget we need. Our culture doesn't like guilt, and we're quick to move on from repentance. But Lent invites us to sit in the tension, to slow down, and to let God meet us in our discomfort
As you listen to this episode, reflect on the following questions:
Where might God be asking me to pause, reflect, or let go? What’s my relationship with repentance—do I avoid it or see it as an invitation? How can I make space to experience grace in a fresh way this season?
