Synopsis

How Grieving Your Sin Brings Abiding Joy—A Practical Guide to Biblical Repentance

People don’t usually associate the word “repentance” with happiness, but Scripture says it’s cause for celebration. 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?
 
Pastor 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.

  • Practical Theology: Personal stories, reflection questions, short prayers, and advice help readers live out the doctrine of repentance
  • Fosters Ongoing Growth and Sanctification: Urges readers to turn their hearts, minds, and wills away from sin and toward Jesus for faith that bears fruit 
  • Biblical Encouragement: Great for readers who want to experience personal spiritual growth as well as restoration in their relationships
  • Biblical and Pastoral Counseling: An accessible resource for pastors and counselors to use in motivating and equipping counselees
  • Features a Foreword by Rosaria Butterfield
