Love to hear from you; “Send us a Text Message”

Jesus insists in the Gospel (Lk 13:1-9) that, without repentance (metanoia), we "will all perish" and be "cut down" like barren fig trees. He's not threatening us or merely requiring us to reject sin. He's lovingly calling us to metanoia as the only way to share His life, bear fruit for the kingdom, and be saved.

Despite His urgency, we've widely failed to proclaim and foster metanoia as He intends. This has severely compromised our Christian life and witness, as evident in the declining faith and practice, repeated ecclesial crises, and ineffective renewal programs of the last half-century. Our failure to understand and embrace metanoia is depriving us of the abundant life Christ desires for us.
