#619 - Repent is the First Word of the Gospel | Rediscovering the Gift of Repentance

#618 - Repentance in Ancient Times | Rediscovering the Gift of Repentance
Repentance is an ancient concept—one could say it is as old as sin itself. From the very beginning, whenever God's people have been separated from Him by sin, repentance has been the key to restoring their relationship with Him. In today’s show, we’ll explore repentance throughout the long history of God's dealings with Israel.

#617 - True Repentance is a Lifestyle | Rediscovering the Gift of Repentance
Many Christians don't realize that God never intended for repentance to be a one-time event, because sin isn't overcome all at once! It's overcome little by little, and every time we truly repent, we're given new power to overcome sin, and new power for holy living.
