Pastor Melissa Scott Ph.D
Pastor Scott replies to Instagram @Casaumile’s comment – “Of course you are right. The Scriptures don’t say anything about Lent. Nor does it say anything about drinking enough water every day. We do both because they help us to stay healthy, spiritually and physically.” She clarifies that while she supports biblical fasting for spiritual and health benefits, she strongly opposes conflating it with Lent, emphasizing that Lent is not scriptural while fasting has a clear biblical foundation.
