There are always questions about how to keep fasts and prayer rules etc., especially during holidays and with non-Orthodox family, young children, sometimes under difficult life circumstances. Steve discusses a lot of topics pertinent to living ascetical disciplines in "real life":
How people became saints for over a thousand years without our current "fasting rules" and no calendar with pink days blocked out.
The misperceptions of the history of fasting rules.
Why fasting is easier for monks than families.
How a four-year-old held an entire monastery hostage for two hours.
Who and what do we fast for?
How we fast wrong.
How to pray during a fast.
Is it possible for Impossible Burger to save you?
Can phoney baloney make you St. Sophrony?
Guilt, shame and fasting.
When life itself is a fast.
And more.....
