Product Description

Fasting has been an age-old, biblical discipline embraced by Christians worldwide. But the connection between fasting and prayer is far more vibrant, life-giving, and transformative than we commonly experience.
Pastor Reward Sibanda draws from his own profound 21-day fast experiences and unique insights from his Zimbabwean heritage in this enlightening resource. Fasting isn't just a spiritual journey; it's a holistic experience encompassing your body, mind, and soul. Combining engaging stories with practical tips for starting a fasting practice, this go-to guide will show you how prayerful fasting can:

  • Enrich your spirit and faith by shifting your mindset from a transactional relationship with God to genuine, sacred communion.
  • Guide you into a truer integration of your whole being (body, mind, and soul) and reveal your intrinsic reliance on Christ.
  • Increase your physical well-being—even to the cellular level with captivating medical details and stories on fasting's effect on your body. 


How To Fast is your comprehensive, modern guide to a deeper, more dynamic spiritual life. Whether you're new to fasting or a seasoned practitioner, this book gives valuable insights that will transform your relationship with God and yourself.

Editorial Reviews

"At last! An accessible yet inspirational introduction to one of the most powerful, countercultural, and neglected aspects of prayer. Reward Sibanda is a man who practices what he preaches, through his living (and praying) with a compelling passion for Jesus, alongside a refreshingly relational, down-to-earth love for God’s people."—Pete Greig, founder of 24-7 Prayer and author of How to Pray: A Simple Guide for Normal People

"This amazing resource will be a helpful guide and trusted companion on your fasting journey. Reward will strengthen your resolve, deepen your conviction, and support your desire to seek the Lord with body, soul, and spirit. He puts language to things I’ve experienced but couldn’t articulate—if only I had access to this gem when I began my fasting journey at age seventeen. I will return to this book again and again."—Stacie Wood, teaching pastor at Saddleback Church

"I know this book will encourage and fortify you in unexpected ways, drawing you into the intricate ways our body was made to be surrendered to the Holy One through fasting. How to Fast isn’t just a how-to guide; it’s a companion on your journey deeper to the heart of the Father."—Amanda Bowman, director of church activation at World Vision

"Reward Sibanda is a man of great joy and integrity who has been personally and radically shaped by the practice of fasting. His insights are rooted in biblical theology and church history, but, most profoundly, in a life of discipleship to Jesus. In these pages, you’ll find deep wisdom, but the greatest gift is that these insights are earthy, grounded—incarnated."—Tyler Staton, lead pastor of Bridgetown Church and author of Searching for Enough, Praying Like Monks, Living Like Fools, and The Familiar Stranger

"Reward offers us a deep and practical invitation to explore the fullness of the kingdom through his writing. This book offers each of us access to ancient spiritual wisdom and power for today."—Danielle Strickland, author and advocate

"I’ve known Reward Sibanda for more than a decade. His leadership has transcended cultural boundaries and religious walls. God has uniquely gifted him as a communicator to shepherd his generation, and this book is a timely resource. It’s a field manual for anyone looking to grow in intimacy with God and to live in the authority given us through Christ."—Michael Miller, author and founder and senior pastor of UPPERROOM

"I wholeheartedly endorse this book and even more the author."—Corey Russell, author and preacher
