Key Learnings

Community, society, family is so important when looking at our brokenness, sin, and need for repentance and change.

The initial steps toward healing a broken humanity are for local communities of faith, to begin with being convicted of, acknowledging, and lamenting our own sin and our participation in sin.

There are four stages to repentance (it is a process!): conviction, contrition, commitment, and change.

Things to Think About

What community are you a part of? How can your community better reflect the new humanity in Christ?
