The Christian season of Lent demands we pay attention to repentance. With this episode, we focus on how Christians can make repentance meaningful in the context of the church's relationship with Indigenous peoples. Right Reverend Bishop Mark MacDonald reveals some common misunderstandings of repentance, explores some traditional rituals among Indigenous spiritual traditions that parallel Christian Lenten practice, and shares a story of what repentance meant to Indigenous peoples prior to contact with white settlers.
