Why Do We Fast?

Abstract

When I was a kid I hated fast Sunday. It seemed like the slowest day of the entire month. Why would anyone call “fast” a day when we didn’t eat? That monthly day seemed to stretch until the Millennium. I felt that God must have found sound strange delight in causing such enduring suffering to my famishing stomach.
