Call to Fast: Taking the Spiritual Journey

Daley's book shatters that notion that fasting has to be a painful deprivation by showing that fasting is more about rebirth than death. Rather than destroying health, a fast restores health by purifying the body. She outlines a program of fasting that focuses primarily upon total body health and well-being. TOXINS: Poor eating habits allow a buildup of poisonous toxins in the body, which can lead to stress, irritability, or tiredness. These feelings often manifest themselves spiritually and emotionally, causing us to lose our peace and serenity. THE JOURNEY: The attitude we have toward our bodies is in many ways a direct reflection of the attitude we have toward our spiritual lives. A fast is more than a physical journey; it is about a closer walk with God. A fast is a journey of spiritual awakening, a period of renewed dependence upon God and an opportunity for a deepened relationship with Him. THE CALL: This book is comprehensive, covering all aspects of the physical and spiritual journey of fasting. It is backed by Daley's years of experience leading fasts for the Abyssinian Baptist Church in New York. She includes moving testimonials, inspirational and empowering scripture readings, and thorough and detailed fasting schedules with charts and tips to help along the way. Daley's program offers hope for those who want to rid their bodies and lives of deadly toxins. With God's help, we can eat better and live healthier lives.
