What Is Repentance?
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.
Repentance: Breaking Habits of Sin
Imagine having to stand in front of Allah (s.w.t.) and watch the sin being committed in front of you then having to explain it. Allah (s.w.t.) mentions in surah Ali Imran, verse 135, “And those who, when they commit immorality or wrong themselves [by trangression], remember Allah and seek forgiveness for their sins…” Keep the door of repentance open between you and Allah because He is always ready to forgive you.
Repentance
Drawing from a variety of religious and civic perspectives, the renowned contributors to this book--from the fields of theology, philosophy, and the social sciences--offer a broad understanding of repentance and its many applications.

Repentance
Repentance begins at conversion—but doesn’t stop there. It isn’t penance, self-effort or condemnation, but an ongoing attitude for daily living in Christ, says Jack Miller. In this new edition Jack’s widow, Rose Marie, adds an epilogue telling of Jack’s own journey of living out repentance on a daily basis.
Repentance
‘But then we all love this place, don’t we, in our different ways?’ It’s the summer of 1976, and the winds of change are blowing through the small town of Repentance on the edge of the Great Dividing Range. The old families farmed cattle and cut timber, but the new settlers, the hippies, have a different perspective on the natural order and humankind’s place in the scheme of things. Soon everything will be disturbed. Either the old growth is coming down or the loggers have to be stopped. And although not everyone agrees on tactics, noone will escape being drawn into the coming confrontation. A tale of a country town and its rhythms, Repentance is also the story of modern Australia at one of its flashpoints, told tenderly and beautifully through the eyes of characters you won’t forget.

On Repentance and Repair
Winner NATIONAL JEWISH BOOK AWARDS in Contemporary Jewish Life & Practice Myra H. Kraft Memorial Award A crucial new lens on repentance, atonement, forgiveness, and repair from harm—from personal transgressions to our culture's most painful and unresolved issues. American culture focuses on letting go of grudges and redemption narratives instead of the perpetrator’s obligations or recompense for harmed parties. As survivor communities have pointed out, these emphases have too often only caused more harm. But Danya Ruttenberg knew there was a better model, rooted in the work of the medieval philosopher Maimonides. For Maimonides, upon whose work Ruttenberg elaborates, forgiveness is much ...
Repentance and the Mission of the Church
What does it mean when we call men and women to repent? What if repentance is more than just turning from individual sin? What if repentance is more than merely a step in the process of conversion? What if repentance is actually part of God’s mission in the world? In this book, W. Ryan Vanderland argues for this very understanding of repentance. Building on the work of other scholars of repentance and engaging with Old Testament and New Testament texts, this book shows how repentance is indeed part of God’s mission in the world, part of the mission of the church in the world, and therefore part of the mission of God’s people. Finally, this work takes this missional understanding of repentance and applies it to issues facing the contemporary church.
