Repentance might be the most misunderstood word in the church. For most of us it means feeling sorry enough until God forgives us. But that's not what the word means — and it's not what Jesus was asking for. In this episode we go deeper into week one of our Encountering Jesus series and unpack what repentance actually is in the Greek — metanoia, a change of mind. We talk about the walls we build to protect our hearts, why those same walls keep out the blessing of God, and what it actually looks like to tear them down. This one got personal. Come ready.
