This week’s challenge is to fast from at least one thing that distracts you from experiencing life in all its fullness. Here’s how to get started:
1. Read this week’s challenge — including Luke 4:1-13 and a story of young people who are changing their lives to fight modern-day slavery.
2. Think of an activity or obligation you can fast from in order to explore new ways to experience life serving God and those around you.
3. Share what you are fasting from with others by creating an action. (Here’s a quick video on how to use the new World Vision Youth global sharing platform!)
