The Repercussions of Doing Ministry Without Fasting | Reward Sibanda

In this episode, Grant sits down with pastor Reward Sibanda, who brought a powerful and challenging perspective that every Western leader needs to hear. He talks about why we've redefined one of the most foundational disciplines of our faith and what we've lost in the process.

Reward cuts through the noise and gets to the heart of what fasting is really about: consecration. It's not about earning God's favor or finding a new self-help trick; it's about humbling ourselves to hear His voice more clearly. If you're feeling spiritually dry or you think your ministry lacks power, this conversation will show you the simple, ancient path to a deeper walk with God.
