Wendy Speake: How Fasting Leads to Spiritual Feasting

Are you ready to experience a spiritual feast? My guest today, Wendy Speake, is a trained actress, author, Bible teacher, and speaker. She shares how fasting leads to spiritual feasting. It began when she sought what God wanted for her life. Soon Wendy was inviting others to join her on a 40-day sugar fast journey and the response was overwhelming. What she and so many others discovered was how to stop turning to sugar and other things to satisfy, and return to God. We talk about her books The 40-Day Sugar Fast: Where Physical Detox Meets Spiritual Transformation, and Triggers: Exhanging Parents' Angry Responses for Gentle Biblical Responses and so much more! I know what Wendy shares will encourage, inspire, and definitely challenge you, so listen in while I have a chat with Wendy Speake. By the Way...
