In this sermon, Pastor Zach Anderson explores the importance of wholehearted repentance, challenging the mindset of an "if-then" approach to God and the dangers of a numb heart. Drawing from Joel 2:12-14, he unpacks the difference between half-hearted apologies and true repentance, emphasizing that God desires a transformed heart rather than empty outward actions. This message also addresses the spiritual battles that can arise when confronting sin and offers scriptural truths to counter lies. Instead of viewing repentance as a way to earn forgiveness, we are invited to see it as restoring our relationship with God, built on His unconditional love and compassion. No matter where we find ourselves, whether struggling with an "if-then" theology or feeling spiritually numb, we are called to bring our whole hearts to Jesus in honest, vulnerable repentance. This offering of what we have leads to deeper intimacy with God.
