The 40-Day Sugar Fast

Where Physical Detox Meets Spiritual Transformation

By: Wendy Speake

Narrated by: Wendy Speake

What would you be willing to give up to gain the presence of God in your life again?

Many of us sign up for a physical detox program, thinking that if our bodies are healthier, then we're healthier. But a healthy body doesn't do us a lot of good if we are spiritually malnourished.

Welcome to The 40-Day Sugar Fast, a fast that begins with us giving Jesus our sugar and ends with Jesus giving us himself - the only thing that can ever truly satisfy our soul's deep hunger. On this 40-day journey you'll learn how to stop fixating on food and other things you use to fill the voids in life and instead fix your eyes on Christ.

Anyone who runs to sugar for comfort or a reward, who eats mindlessly or out of boredom, who feels physically and spiritually lethargic, or who struggles with self-control will discover here not only freedom from their cravings but an entirely new appetite for the good things God has for us.

What am I running too?

This question was asked. What are you running g to when you are tired, stressed, upset, want you celebrate etc.? Do I turn to sweets, alcohol, social media, friends, games or to the One who made me? This book is about more than laying aside sugar for 40 days. it's about craving Words of Life and filling up on His promises and words of truth rather than empty, unsatisfying cany, cookies or pies. They taste good for a moment but leave me unsatisfied. Instead I want to 'taste and see that the Lord is good."

Great Message/Bothersome Delivery

The message and support this book offers is great, although the author speaks from an un-relatable place of privilege (hence 4 stars). I’ve done the fast twice. I’d like to listen a third time, continuing to refine the fast each time, but I don’t think I can handle the narrator’s voice anymore. The way the words are pronounced is glaringly unnatural, with the D’s clipped and the S’s pronounced in different forms of lisped and SZ sounds. Because she pronounces the same words differently, even within the same sentence, it feels very unnatural and is deeply distracting from the message. I hope the author allows someone else to narrate her next book so the message takes center stage rather the performance-heavy, odd and inconsistent pronunciation of words and sounds.

Thankful For This BooK

What a wonderful way to start the year. Laying down sugar with thousands of others and seeking God daily.

Excellent book. Wendy's voice is soothing.

I finished the book in 3 days. So much biblical wisdom and motivation to break the sugar addiction and get closer to God. I'm excited to continue on the journey.

Utterly transforming

This fast has been miraculous. It challenged me in ways I was not expecting and opened my eyes to spiritual strongholds that have been in place for decades. God used this book in such a powerful way to bring down those walls and build up safe havens in my life. I am so hungry for The Lord and His Holy Spirit and finding satisfaction in Him moment by moment. My 11-year-old daughter is joining my to do the fast again over the summer. Thank you to Wendy Speake and everyone who made this book.
