Repentance vs. Penance

JOYFUL JOURNEY PODCAST
About this episode

Repentance is a word that is used so often in Christian circles, but what is it exactly? This week, Janet and Jocelyn discuss true repentance and how it doesn’t mean we work to pay for our sins as a form of penance, but instead turn from sin and to God.
