Repentance (Part 1)
Foundations of the Christian FaithSteve Gregg
In this discussion, Steve Gregg talks about the importance of repentance as a fundamental aspect of putting one's trust in God. He stresses that repentance involves more than just a general shift in attitude towards sin, but rather a complete turnaround from it. While overcoming sinful behavior is a separate issue, it is a crucial goal for Christians to strive for in order to live a life that glorifies God. Gregg also notes that true repentance involves feeling remorse for past failures and sins, and a goal to strive for holiness.
