What happens when we empty ourselves in full surrender to God?
In Part Two of this powerful conversation, Eric Scovill and Carole Ward dive into the often-misunderstood discipline of fasting—not as a religious exercise, but as a gateway to deeper intimacy with God, sharper discernment, and breakthrough-level prayer.
Carole, founder of Favor International, shares profound wisdom from decades of experience in both fasting and frontline ministry across Africa. She offers practical guidance on how to build fasting into your spiritual life—and why it’s so crucial for believers who want to live with heaven’s power on earth.
You’ll also hear incredible stories of what God is doing through Favor: reaching unreached people groups, rescuing the vulnerable, and discipling thousands across multiple nations. Carole’s testimony will stir your faith—and show you how you can join in the harvest.
This episode is a call to live fully surrendered, fully engaged, and fully empowered by the presence of God.
