The Gospel of Repentance - Pastor Mike Hovland

Matthew 3:1-2

Some people today shy away from preaching repentance, perhaps feeling that a more positive message is needed. If your understanding of the gospel were captured in one word what would that word be? Matthew summarized the message of John and the Lord with ‘repent.’ What is the place of repentance in the good news of the gospel? What are the characteristics of genuine repentance? The doctrine of repentance contains the whole gospel in seed form. Listen to hear why ‘repent’ is actually good news.
