Overview
A thought-provoking book on one of the least understood????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????but most powerful????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????disciplines of Christianity. Most believers know about fasting, but few of us really understand the wonderful benefits that come when we fast with purpose and direction. Written in Dr. Elmer Towns' dynamic, descriptive style, this book gives the why of fasting, rather than just the how. Towns' avoids a glut of techniques and schedules; instead he provides a probing look at Isaiah 58, often called "the fasting passage." Learn how fasting can strengthen your faith and draw you closer to God, helping you to be a true overcomer in Christ.

 | Great book! Mar 11, 2008 |
| This has been the best book I have found on fasting. It covers absolutely everything you might hope to cover on the subject - from health concerns, to reasons for fasting, to possible time-frames, to variations in how you may decide to proceed. I have found it helpful to go through some of the material on the days that I fast in order to help my focus. I have learned so much from this book and highly recommend it. | | | | A POWERFUL LOOK AT BIBLICAL FASTING! Dec 10, 2007 |
Not only has the information in this powerful book been instrumental in my own spiritual development (bondage breaking!), the companion Study Guide was most helpful when leading this study for others. EVERYONE was blessed and deeply moved by finally understanding what it meant to incorporate Biblical Fasting into their Christian life. Thank you, Mr. Towns!
This book is designed to target a biblical and spiritual understanding of this Christian discipline rather than give tips on fasting; however, in Towns book, "The Beginner's Guide to Fasting", he writes more about the physical aspects of undergoing a fast. I recommend this book for a more thorough knowledge of "how to" fast and what to expect physically. May God bless you as He has blessed me! | | | | A Godsend! Jan 6, 2007 |
At a time when I needed answers to difficult things this book helped direct my prayers and thoughts. Fasting for Spiritual Breakthrough gave me a jumping off point and now the answers ARE coming. I am confident they would not have come had I not followed Mr. Towns' suggestion to fast in the relevent, focused ways he suggests. He has organized his material well. A vital book if you're very serious about getting spiritual answers.
I did not need the workbook, finding everything I needed in the manual instead.
(Please note, I agree with the reviewer below that it is very wise to educate yourself well on this subject before fasting more than a week. For example, when breaking a longer fast you must be knowledgeable or you will cramp, yet there is no danger if you know how to resume eating, go slowly, and are assured your body is ready for a fast in the first place. In fact the health benefits are incomparable and wonderful--increased energy a few days after resuming normal eating.) | | |  | I do not recommend this book Dec 6, 2006 |
| The ideas expressed in this book are troublesome and not supportive of a healthy and positive spirituality. Other, more balanced books are available. | | | | Fasting for Spiritual Breakthrough Jun 28, 2006 |
| Tremendous book. One of the best I have ever read. Towns writes like he speaks, in very simplistic terms yet very profound. I would recommend this to anyone who is seriously considering or who frequently fast. He provides an eye opening approach and covers all baases. | | | Write your own review about Fasting for Spiritual Breakthrough: A Guide to Nine Biblical Fasts
