Summary
Repentance is a Biblical word that you'll find all across the scriptures and is central to the Good News of Jesus. It's the word the prophets use to invite change and transformation in God's people. The word in the New Testament is metanoia, which literally means "afterthought" or "changed mind." Repentance involves sorrow over our sins and errors, but it also invites us to look ahead to consider how our conduct should be different. Our sermon series for the season of Lent will look at the Gospel of Luke and the ways Jesus speaks about money and how the gospel convicts and transforms our relationship to our wealth. We begin this week with the words of John the Baptist and his message of repentance (Luke 3:7-18), but we'll also remember that a baptism of repentance is only the doorstep to Jesus' baptism of redemption-- that though the price of our sin is steep, God in Christ has paid it all.
