309 – Why You Need to Repent, but Don’t Want to, and How You’ll Be Blessed When You Do
Manage episode 505306562 series 2793260
309 – What’s your first thought when someone says, “You need to repent.”?
Does it make you uncomfortable or uneasy? Or do you agree and admit to yourself that you do need to repent?
It might depend on the context and tone of voice someone uses to say those words, but all too often it happens during a sermon that sounds like a shouting match with the preacher yelling at his audience, using fear and emotional triggers to convince them of the consequences if they don’t stop sinning.
Some people are turned off by this approach and others take the message to heart and try to reform their lives.
Repentance is a crucial part of being a follower of Christ, but sometimes the word is misunderstood and the full blessing of repentance is lost.
In this week’s episode of The Bible Speaks to You Podcast, we’re going to talk about
- What true repentance is
- Why it’s an ongoing and important part of your faith
- Why you might resist wanting to repent
- The blessings that come when you do
Previous episode mentioned this week: Episode 15 – How to Stop Fighting Your Brother and Love Him Instead
