"We were created to worship, and if we won't worship God, we'll worship something else.
"Calling to repentance, then, means calling for a reorientation of worship. So who or what are we worshiping rather than God? What compels our time and energy, our spending and our leisure? What makes us angry? What gives us hope and comfort? What are our aspirations for our children?
"...Repenting means exchanging our idols for God. Before it's a change in behavior, it must be a change in worship...."
-- Michael Lawrence, "Conversion" (9Marks)
