Still A 21-Day Pursuit of Jesus by Jess Strickland is more than just a book about fasting—it’s a guide to recalibrating your "hungers," particularly your hunger for Christ. This 21-day journey challenges readers to step away from everyday distractions and indulgences, allowing space for a deeper connection with Jesus. First, this book will take you on a transformative journey of spending intentional time with Jesus for 21 days. Through fasting and reflection, you'll starve yourself of the things that distract you and learn to hunger for Christ in new, life-changing ways. Second, the habits formed during this 21-day pursuit will equip you to continue seeking Jesus long after the book has been set aside. The goal is to cultivate a lasting hunger for Christ that doesn’t fade with time. Here’s the Getting insight from Jesus is different from hearing the voice of Jesus. As Jesus warned in Matthew 7:22-23, there are many who may prophesy in His name but do not truly know Him. This book seeks to bridge that gap, guiding you to a deeper, more personal relationship with Jesus. Still Starving demystifies the ancient practice of reading Scripture, making it simple and accessible. In these pages, you'll discover how Jesus desires to reveal Himself to you in clear and profound ways, leading you into a deeper knowledge of Him. Because being hungry for Jesus is not just a longing—it is the greatest satisfaction of our lives.
