Repentance is Turning to Something Greater

We often think [repentance is] the religious equivalent of saying, "Eat your vegetables." In truth, repentance is turning from a lesser good to a greater one. It's saying "stop eating out of the trash and taste this feast the Lord has made for you."

--Daniel Montgomery & Mike Cosper, Faithmapping: A Gospel Atlas for Your Spiritual Journey (Wheaton, IL: Crossway, 2012), 189.
