Living In Remembrance Part 7: Ebeneezer Scrooge & The Call to Repentance

In part 7 of our series we being a "series within a series" that will run during the Advent Season. Advent is a season in which our Lord leads us into deeper repentance so that we might experience His profound healing in our lives. One of the great works of classical literature, A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens, paints a picture of the life of Ebeneezer Scrooge; a man who needs repentance, is lead into repentance, and is so completely transformed through the process that he is an entirely different human being. In this series we will let Dickens' work lead be a guide to us that we may be freed by our Lord Jesus Christ of all that has us bound both from our past and in our present. Today we begin by making sure we understand the Church's understanding of repentance. And, we look at the reasons Ebeneezer Scrooge needs healing that comes through repentance and we have a look at the call to repentance by Jacob Marley.
