What Is Repentance?
Author: R. C. SproulPublisher: Reformation Trust Publishing
ISBN: 9781642890532
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 37
Book Description
All people have sinned and broken God's law. None of us are good (Rom. 3:10). And as a result of our sin, God commands us to repent. But what does repentance look like? In this booklet, Dr. R.C. Sproul looks at several people in the Bible and how they give us a model of repentance. Dr. Sproul explains that true repentance is not simply a religious ritual or the resolve to do better next time. Rather, it's a spiritual conversion in which we turn from our sin and to God in faith. The Crucial Questions booklet series by Dr. R.C. Sproul offers succinct answers to important questions often asked by Christians and thoughtful inquirers.

The Sins of the Nation and the Ritual of Apologies
Author: Danielle CelermajerPublisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1139477579
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 285
Book Description
In the last years of the twentieth century, political leaders the world over began to apologize for wrongs in their nations' pasts. Many dismissed these apologies as 'mere words', cynical attempts to avoid more costly forms of reparation; others rejected them as inappropriate encroachments into politics or forms of action that belonged in personal relationships or religion. To understand apology's extraordinary political emergence, we have to suspend our automatic interpretations of what it means for nations to apologize and interrogate their meaning afresh. Taking the reader on a journey through apology's religious history and contemporary apologetic dramas, this book argues that the apologetic phenomenon marks a new stage in our recognition of the importance of collective responsibility, the place of ritual in addressing national wrongs, and the contribution that practices that once belonged in the religious sphere might make to contemporary politics.

Languages : en
Pages : 284
Book Description
You can live a radically inclusive life without compromising your beliefs or the truth of the gospel. Humanity is more divided now than ever, gridlocked over social issues, race, gender, climate change, immigration, and our responsibility to vulnerable people. How did we get here? And what can we do to build bridges where walls exist? As a pastor committed to building deep relationships with people whose life experiences are different than his own, Terry Crist knows the beauty and challenge of connecting across dividing lines of race, economic status, faith, and much more. And in this book, he shares how you can too. Profoundly weaving the story of Jesus and the Samaritan woman at the well with his own stories and examples from culture today, Terry addresses how we've strayed from the unity God intended and how we can trade judgment for grace, disputes for harmony, apathy for empathy, and hate for love and acceptance. By the end of this book, you will be able to: Identify how you personally see the world and why it matters Recognize those on the margins who are right around you Imitate Jesus's love for all humanity in the interactions you have with others Extend dignity to those suffering from mental illness, homelessness, and addiction Maintain thriving relationships when family members are on opposing sides of issues Be an ambassador of reconciliation in your community It doesn't have to be one or the other--you can both love God and love your neighbor.
