At WestGate Church, we’re trying our hardest to understand what it looks like for us to become fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ. We want to love and live like Jesus. And we want to do this together in community.

All throughout both the Old and New Testaments, we see a clear pattern of people in Scripture turning to prayer and fasting in times of uncertainty, brokenness, and need. And in those examples, we find that prayer and fasting are not just religious obligations but natural responses to desperation. And we find that moments of crisis can lead to spiritual renewal when approached with humility and dependence on God. And we find that whether you and I are facing the unknown road ahead or the ruins of life, the invitation is to pray and fast, recognizing that our deepest hunger can only be satisfied by God.

All throughout both the Old and New Testaments, we see a clear pattern of people in Scripture turning to prayer and fasting in times of uncertainty, brokenness, and need. And in those examples, we find that prayer and fasting are not just religious obligations but natural responses to desperation. And we find that moments of crisis can lead to spiritual renewal when approached with humility and dependence on God. And we find that whether you and I are facing the unknown road ahead or the ruins of life, the invitation is to pray and fast, recognizing that our deepest hunger can only be satisfied by God.

In one of His most famous teachings, when asked what the most important concept of the entire Old Testament is, Jesus says, that it's to “love God” and then adds “and love your neighbor.” In this one teaching, Jesus forever links loving God with loving your neighbor. Later, in the Book of James, the author says that “faith without works is dead.” Loving God means using one's life to serve and help other people who are in our circle of relationship. And doing so not only changes things around us, but also changes us. SPEAKERS: Finny Abraham (Saratoga), Keivan Tehrani (South Hills) Bible Passage(s): James 2:14-17
