Ep 158: What Happens When You Fast from Alcohol for Lent?
Fasting from alcohol for Lent is becoming a powerful spiritual practice for many Catholic women. In this episode, Christie explains why this fast is biblical, how it affects the body, and how to approach it gently as an offering to the Lord.
If you feel drawn to try this fast, I created a simple Lenten devotional called Into the Desert. It’s a daily companion for women fasting from alcohol, with Scripture, reflection, and guided journaling to help you stay attentive to what God is doing as you set wine down.
The devotional opens on February 15th, three days before Ash Wednesday, with a gentle preparation period to help you ease into the fast. From there, each day opens one at a time, right when you need it—like a Lenten calendar—so you’re not getting ahead or overwhelmed, just showing up for today.
