The "Intentional" Christian Reading Challenge discussion

I generally like books that are concise. This one had long boring sections. But it has changed my perspective, and hence, my life. The book ties authentic prayer to fasting... whether we abstain from eating food, watching TV, or indulging in a bad habit. The author contends that only when our hunger for God exceeds our hunger for consuming what the world can provide, can we truly appreciate and enjoy what God has to give us from the bounty of His creation. The book would be a good resource for a small study or discussion group. It should be read reflectively.
