Publisher Description
Billy Horton is a current minor league hitting coach with the San Francisco Giants. Even though he was cut his freshman year in high school, he eventually earned a college baseball scholarship and played in the Minor Leagues from 1997-2000. Billy has 15 years of coaching experience and has worked in nearly every level of the game from youth baseball up to the professional ranks. 7 Day Fast is a transparent look into Billy's life over a seven day period in the autumn of 2011. It chronicles the difficulties he endures as well as the small daily victories he achieves as he searches for God's will during an extremely difficult time in his family's life. During the fast, he fully comes to understand that it is God's strength that he needs to rely on, not his own, which opens the door for the Lord to perform miraculous works in his life.

Understanding Fasting
I came across this book as I was searching the Internet for solid definitions of fasting from others who've done it. I recently went on a 7 day fast and was struggling. I went in the fast to go strictly with water, I back slid a few times. When I first began fasting, I didn't know what it was, just asked a lot of questions about it to my pastor. I started 3 day fasting then 5 then 7 and I did a David fast for 21 days. However this last time i was really struggling to stay the course. I prayed for guidance and strength everyday. I found this book and In its contents i saw two words that stood out to me that made me believe God was speaking to me through this book. The nickname I'm called and the name of my team at my job. I absolutely love this book, it shows that everyone goes though their own struggles during fasting and it was a great idea to document it. I learned it's also a great thing to have someone there to support you to help you stay the course. His wife was accustomed to fasting and she was his physical support. I depend solely on Christ during fasting. Miracles do happen at the end of a fast and this book just put it in BOLD. This book was the answer to my prayer for guidance. I thank the Lord and bless the author for making his journey public. This book was truly a blessing.
