Why do we avoid fasting so easily? What are we afraid might surface? In this episode, Fr Columba explores how fasting exposes the hidden parts of our hearts—not to shame us, but to bring healing. Drawing on personal experience and spiritual wisdom, he shows how hunger can reveal buried anger, self-reliance and wounds, offering us a chance to bring it all to Jesus and be transformed.
