Angels rejoice over sinners who repent. A once heartbroken father threw a party for his prodigal son. True repentance is “coming home” to find joy in God. Why do so many people today view it as a burden?\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003ePastor Chris Brauns explains that deep, abiding gladness comes when we grieve sin and turn toward Jesus. This thorough study of repentance examines the Old and New Testaments as well as the Westminster Shorter Catechism. It is made practical with reflection questions, prayers, and advice for daily sanctification. As readers apply biblical principles, they will experience life-giving joy in their spiritual lives and restoration in their relationships.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"a-unordered-list a-vertical\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-list-item\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003ePractical Theology:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Personal stories, reflection questions, short prayers, and advice help readers live out the doctrine of repentance\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-list-item\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003eFosters Ongoing Growth and Sanctification:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Urges readers to turn their hearts, minds, and wills away from sin and toward Jesus for faith that bears fruit \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-list-item\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003eBiblical Encouragement:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Great for readers who want to experience personal spiritual growth as well as restoration in their relationships\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-list-item\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003eBiblical and Pastoral Counseling:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e An accessible resource for pastors and counselors to use in motivating and equipping counselees\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-list-item\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003eFeatures a Foreword by Rosaria Butterfield\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEAN: 9781433575068\u003cbr\u003ePages: 220\u003cbr\u003eCategory: Christian Living\u003cbr\u003eDimensions: mm x228.6mm x152.4mm\u003cbr\u003ePublication Date: March 2026\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Crossway\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chris Brauns","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51946446487833,"sku":"9781433575068","price":34.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0680\/8757\/8905\/files\/81OCRO-OECL._SY466.jpg?v=1771459417","url":"https:\/\/crossroad.com.au\/products\/the-way-of-repentance-embracing-gods-gift-for-a-transformed-life","provider":"Crossroad Distributors","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
