Repentance is a U-Turn from Sin and Self. Off-ramp: start with your own prayer, then find a fellowship of prayers. Your fellowship needs to hold you accountable and that's not always comfortable. Remember the stakes.

Elder Ordination of Adam Griffin

Repentance is a U-Turn from Sin and Self. Off-ramp: humble yourself, take responsibility for your actions. Take responsibility means making restitution.

Repentance is a U-TURN from sin and self. Off-ramp: Practice being good; it will help you learn repentance. Remember that GOD is jealous for his people. Avoid your idols and/or surrender them. God loves barking and not biting.

Repentance is a U-TURN from sin and self. Off-ramp: repentance happens when we hate our sin and when we love GOD more than we love ourselves. GOD doesn't want grand gestures, he wants a broken heart.

U-Turn: Profiles in Repentance. Cain and Abel

Sin is missing the mark, and it always brings consequences. God Gives us many off-ramps to help make a U-Turn. If we don't make a spiritual U-Turns, we'll become restless wanderers.

The dysfunction: every family has a black sheep. Maybe this Christmas it's time to bring some black sheep back into the fold. Jesus restores every black sheep.

The Dysfunction: dereliction of duty.

The Dysfunction: doubling down

The Solution: Jesus shows up.

Every intimate relationship is dysfunctional. Jesus redeems our intimate relationships, making them fully functional.
