Fasting for 40 days changed everything—our bodies, our relationship, and most importantly, our walk with God. In this episode, we’re sharing our honest experience of not eating for 40 days while praying intentionally for our (future) relationship. We lost over 75 pounds combined, but what we gained in clarity, peace, and spiritual connection was even greater.

Whether you’re single and praying for your future spouse, engaged and seeking God’s direction, or in a relationship craving breakthrough, this conversation is for you. We’ll unpack what fasting revealed about our hearts, how God moved in our relationship, and what it means to seek Him first in love and life.
