Repentance has almost become a forgotten word in the modern day church, but it is very much a part of the Gospel message. Last time on Focal Point, Pastor Mike Fabarez stressed that repentance and faith are both a work of God, and not something we can drum up on our own. And with that as a backdrop, we’ll spend some time today discussing what repentance is all about. Then we’ll transition to the other component of our response to the Gospel, and that’s faith. We hear that term tossed around quite a bit these days, but do we understand what biblical faith is? Here now to encourage us to rely on Christ and nothing else for forgiveness, is Pastor Mike once again.
If you have ever asked the question, "What is God's will for my life?" then you understand the most profound challenge facing believers today. But is it that difficult to understand?
Learn how God accomplishes his sacred purposes through seemingly ordinary means and what it takes on our part to truly understand what God's will is for our lives.
