At CrossWay yesterday we wrapped up the series “i am second” with a message called “Why It’s Good to Be a Sorry Loser.”
We started with a video testimony from Texas Rangers outfielder Josh Hamilton, then talked about everyone’s favorite subject: repentance. Repentance doesn’t seem like a very fun word, but it’s actually the means that God has given us to draw close to Him. We talk a lot in various circles about change, and repentance is the key to real, true, lasting change. Repentance can be broken down into simple steps:
(1) Admit my sinfulness.
(2) Humble myself. This means:
A. Submit myself to God.
B. Submit myself to others.
(3) Resist temptation.
(4) Draw near to God.
To delve deeper you can read James 4:4-10 and listen to the podcast when it’s up.
