The Turn

"But when he came to himself, he said, 'How many of my father's hired servants have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger!'" — Luke 15:17

Everybody has a speech. You've rehearsed it in the truck, in the shower, at two in the morning — and it almost always ends with the same line: just let me back in, I'll take less.

In Part 4 of Restored, Pastor Mark draws from Luke 15 and 2 Corinthians 7 to uncover what has been underneath the whole time. You'll see why repentance starts the moment you remember whose you are, how to tell godly sorrow from worldly sorrow by its fruit, the difference between a boundary and a wall when the person you love hasn't turned yet, and how to stop negotiating a demotion and come home as a son or daughter.
