Hungry
This past weekend the youth at my church did something they call The 30-Hour Fast. It’s an annual event where, as the name implies, nobody gets to eat for thirty hours. From 1 pm on Friday to 7 pm on Saturday the kids, and their adult chaperones, eat nothing but the occasional broth or juice, […]
