Light In Your Corner
Join Lauren and Monica as they discuss how to live in and bless our surrounding culture while carrying the LIGHT that cannot be overcome.
We are two women joining Jesus in our neighborhood while navigating family, friendships, work, creativity, and chronic health issues. We don't always do things right the first time, and we have a borderline-unhealthy relationship with British mystery novels, but with God we can find the humor and the heart behind most things. Light in Your Corner is our first podcast.

(76) To Fast or Not to Fast? That’s Just One of Many Questions
To Fast or Not to Fast? That’s Just One of Many Questions
Hi, friend, we are so glad you are with us today! In today’s episode we have a discussion about what we are doing, and what others suggest we do, to grow in living out our faith.
It started as a text conversation in response to an interview John Mark Comer did about his book “The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry,” but we knew there was more to discuss, and where better to discuss it than here on “Light in Your Corner”?
So buckle up, folks. We are about to discuss fasting, spiritual disciplines, embracing discomfort, hearing voices, and a lot of other stuff. And still, we land on this truth: we belong to Christ already. There is nothing we need to do to earn it. It is a gift and it is ours in Jesus. Let that be our starting place, our ending place, and the truth that guides us every step of the way.
