This insightful work delves into the historical, theological, and canonical foundations of the fasts prescribed by the Church. Drawing from a variety of sources including patristic writings, canonical laws, and ancient Christian traditions, the book explores the origins, significance, and evolution of these fasting periods, such as the fasts before major feasts like Pascha, the Dormition of the Theotokos, and Christmas. The author, deeply grounded in Orthodox Christian tradition, defends the spiritual and communal value of fasting, presenting it as a vital exercise for both personal sanctification and communal worship. This study not only highlights the continuity of these practices throughout the history of the Church but also offers a thoughtful examination of their role in the spiritual lives of the faithful. Perfect for theologians, clergy, and devout laity, this work underscores the importance of fasting as a means of drawing closer to God through discipline, prayer, and charity.
