Synopsis

What would you be willing to give up to gain the presence of God in your life again?

Many of us sign up for a physical detox program, thinking that if our bodies are healthier, then we're healthier. But a healthy body doesn't do us a lot of good if we are spiritually malnourished.

Welcome to the 40-Day Sugar Fast, a fast that begins with us giving Jesus our sugar and ends with Jesus giving us himself—the only thing that can ever truly satisfy our soul's deep hunger. On this 40-day journey you'll learn how to stop fixating on food and other things you use to fill the voids in life and instead fix your eyes on Christ.

Anyone who runs to sugar for comfort or a reward, who eats mindlessly or out of boredom, who feels physically and spiritually lethargic, or who struggles with self-control will discover here not only freedom from their cravings but an entirely new appetite for the good things God has for us.

Goodreads review by Tiffany on December 20, 2020

Though this book focuses on fasting from sugar, I used it to guide my fasting from mindless eating and snacking which were my bigger issues. I don't have much of a sweet tooth other than Starbucks specialty drinks which I did fast. I don't keep sweets in the house in general. However, I did do a lot......more

Goodreads review by Ada on February 28, 2021

The experience of going through these 40 days searching sustenance in prayer and God’s word rather than any other addictive distractive crutch (sugar/cacao/coffee, notifications, social media, online defocalised searches or shopping) has really been freeing, created head space and focus. I plan to k......more
