What Jesus Really Meant By "Repent"
Father Alexis Torrance & Father Josiah Trenham
What did Jesus really mean when He said “Repent”? Discover the deeper meaning of the Greek word metanoite and why repentance isn’t a one-time act—but a lifelong transformation. In this video, we explore the threefold path of repentance as taught by the ascetic fathers, including Saint Mark the Ascetic and Saint Isaac the Syrian. Learn how repentance is not just confession of sin, but a total reorientation of the mind and heart toward Christ.
Drawing from Scripture and the Church Fathers, Father Josiah discusses how true spiritual transformation requires both intellectual assent and practical obedience, guiding believers toward union with Christ.
