Ep 3: Think "Invitation for Connection," Rather than "Tool for Shame"

For many Christians repentance is a tool for guilting people. But Jesus saw it as a meaningful way to draw a person back into right relationship.

Josh Scott leads the discussion in this episode as we consider how keeping Christ in Christian might very well look like using repentance as a practice for inviting connection (and not shame).
