Synopsis

A shift has occurred within our contemporary Christian culture a departure so contrary to Scripture that an alarm must be sounded. The Joy of Repentance rings that alarm with a truthful, loving, and restorative call that illuminates the heart of every believer and prompts the church to rehabilitate its intimate union with Christ. In many ways, the Body of Christ has forsaken the biblical mandate to repent, defining the process as negative and burdensome. But in reality, sin produces a yoke of bondage and consequence, while repentance provides a roadway of reconciliation. The suffering Christian, soiled with the residue of this world, is only a repentant prayer away from resolution and healing. When Scripture is followed, potential is restored, and God is magnified. The Joy of Repentance is a message of hope, structure, and biblical teaching that provides a framework for personal revival.
