The kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel\" (Mk 1:15). The word \"repent\" in Greek is \u003ci\u003emetanoia\u003c\/i\u003e -- but the original Greek word means much more than just repentance. It means to change, to turn, to think differently. Metanoia is not a one-time event but a process, and as Christians we are called to live a life of metanoia.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eLiving Metanoia\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e explores what this looks like in our daily lives, encouraging believers in all walks of life to go deeper in their relationship with Jesus. In his down-to-earth, approachable style, Fr. Dave Pivonka, TOR, addresses basic topics such as who Jesus actually is (rather than who we think he is or who we want him to be); what we need to do in order to inherit eternal life; the reality of evil; and our daily call to a deeper commitment to Christ. Each chapter contains Sacred Scripture to give context and direction, along with reflection questions and a practical \"metanoia moment\" to help us live a life of change.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWe all need metanoia -- over and over again. Realizing this should be a source of hope and encouragement, for only by living metanoia can we find true and lasting freedom and fulfillment in Jesus Christ.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eABOUT THE AUTHOR\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFr.
