This issue will help you reflect on your own sinful nature, and how we handle sin as a community. It may even challenge your biases and the way you think about sin. But it also points us to hope, and may help you to see the Kingdom in a new light. Our repentance is not meant to lead us to shame, but to meaningful change that allows us to experience the fullness of the life God wants for us, both in the future and in your life right now.
