Hi, this is Justin.

00:00:04

Today on Theocast, we are talking about repentance.

00:00:07

If you look around in the church and certainly on Christian social media, there seems to be a lot of confusion about repentance and what it is.

00:00:15

So, we're going to talk about repentance from the Old Testament, repentance from the New Testament.

00:00:19

We're going to talk about repentance on the front end in terms of conversion and how one is united to Christ.

00:00:24

And we're going to talk about repentance in an ongoing way in the Christian life and hope to make some sense of this topic.

00:00:31

We hope that you're encouraged by the conversation.

00:00:34

We hope, as always, that you find assurance and rest in the Lord Jesus Christ as you listen.

00:00:38

Stay tuned.

Welcome to Theocast, Encouraging Weary Pilgrims to Rest in Christ.

00:01:11

Conversations about the Christian life from a reformed perspective, and as we've been saying lately, from a pastoral perspective as well.

00:01:18

Your hosts today are John Moffat, who is pastor of Grace Reformed Church in Spring Hill, Tennessee, just south of Nashville, and myself, Justin Perdue, pastor of Covenant Baptist Church in Asheville, North Carolina.

00:01:31

John, it's good to be around the mic with you, man.

00:01:33

We've been out of the recording rhythm for the last couple of weeks due to various things of travel for each of us.

00:01:41

And we recorded a few episodes before we left, and we're going to be recording several episodes over the coming weeks trying to catch up.

00:01:48

But today is the first time back in the seat, and we'll see how this goes, I suppose.
