[Dialogue] FASTING

[Michael & Molly Shaw]

Our church used this litany a couple of years ago during lent to focus our
fasting:

Fast from pessimism; feast on optimism.
Fast from pessimism; feast on optimism.
Fast from pessimism; feast on optimism.
Fast from pessimism; feast on optimism.

Subject: [Dialogue] FASTING

I'm anticipating doing some fasting. I have intuitions about why I 
want to do it and what I'm doing. I would like to find as much 
background information as possible so that I can better interpret to 
those who inquire about what I'm doing and why I'm doing it.

I will be doing a search for written info/background. This is part of 
the search!

Can anyone refer me to resource info on the practices and purposes of 
fasting? Perhaps we even have some Order material. If so I have long 
since lost track of it.
