The Deliverance Ne†work

This segment of Cross Talk features a wonderful interview with Fr. Dan Dubroy talking about the powerful practices of prayer and fasting. While prayer is more understood and generally practised, the practice of fasting is something that may be more misunderstood and under-utilized in our day. Fr. Dan does a wonderful job of explaining the underlying principles of fasting as well as the benefits and uses the story of the Cure d’Ars as an example. This segment is a deeply motivating interview that I am sure will help all of our viewers deepen in their practice of prayer, and perhaps consider the practice of ‘fasting’*.

I personally believe, and Fr. Dan references, the fact that prayer and fasting has great power to create change in our world – not only for ourselves, but for the myriad of intentions that you may personally have in your heart, and that the heart of the world also desperately needs. We are in times of great turmoil and upheaval, and the deepening of our spirituality through deepening practice of prayer and perhaps fasting are one way we can become more powerful agents for good in the world.

*It must be noted that with regard to fasting, should you wish to practice this in any way in the reduction of food etc., it is always advised to speak to your medical practitioner to determine what is best for your own personal situation. This segment is not intended at all to be medical advice for anyone in any way, and must be personally discerned with your individual Doctor with regard to your own personal health and circumstances.
