Quotemeal: Sep. 27th, 2019

Friday, September 27, 2019

"Many Bible passages (such as Luke 13:3 or Acts 2:38) issue a call for repentance. Repentance? The very thought stops our hearts with chilling honesty, for it insists that we come clean before we set out to execute life's important choices. Repentance demands that we choose a path of holy living."
— Calvin Miller
