Ronnie Floyd has been a key catalyst for fasting and prayer in my life. He is one of the seminal voices on fasting in the church today. He lives what he preaches, and his life exhibits the fruit of walking closely with God. His influence and example are the main reasons Dr. Malachi O'Brien and I felt led to call on one million young people to fast and pray for the Roaring Twenties Fast.
