The good news of how God reconciled the world to Himself in Jesus Christ has always been radically and fundamentally different from the world's way of thinking. In fact, measured by human standards of logic, it is pure foolishness. I mean, how wise is it to give abundant life to those who deserve death? How wise is it to forgive, even before a person realises how wrong they have been ... even before forgiveness is sought ... to love those who are at enmity against you?It is in the light of this radical declaration of the gospel that questions are stirred.I love questions. Good questions are worth infinitely more than the best answers to worthless questions. Mary-Anne and I travel extensively, conversing with people about this beautiful gospel and we are constantly asked questions. Some questions are asked with predictable regularity - no matter what topic we speak on or what location we find ourselves in, these questions keep popping up.This booklet is inspired by one of those questions and the joy we witnessed in discovering the answers together.The question is: How do we understand 'repentance' in the light of this radical gospel.

Matthew describes the beginning of Jesus's ministry with the summary words, "μετανοεῖτε (repent/turn), for the kingdom of heaven is at hand" (3:2; 4:17). Why does Matthew use this command, μετανοεῖτε, at the beginning of his ministry, and how does it relate to the rest of the Gospel? What do μετανοέω and μετάνοια mean? Scholars have stated that μετανοέω in 4:17 has critical value for understanding Matthew because the verse functions as a summary statement (or key phrase) of Jesus's public ministry and teaching. This book argues the thematic significance of μετάνοια (turning/repentance) in the Gospel of Matthew. The lexical idea of μετανοέω and μετάνοια involves a turning of mind (or heart, will, thinking) and behavior, and so in turn of one's whole being and life. This opening commandment of turning (μετανοέω), especially the concept, the essence, and the contents is fully revealed throughout the body of Matthew in various ways. Discipleship, the language of righteousness, doing the will of God, changing one's heart and mind, the Great Commission, and Matthean soteriological theme convey the essence of μετάνοια and the contents of the fruit worthy of μετάνοια(3:2, 8; 4:17). The five major teaching blocks (5-7; 10; 13; 18; 23-25) teach the theme and the content of μετάνοια.

How can one live an authentically Christian life? Although many books and articles delineate the content of the Gospel message, the form or shape of an existence based on faith has not been studied as thoroughly. To use a language correctly, it is not enough to know the vocabulary; one must have a good grasp of its grammar. This book attempts to deepen our knowledge of the grammar of the Christian life starting from the notion of metanoia. Generally translated as “repentance” or “conversion,” the word has in fact a much richer significance: it describes a total reorientation and transformation of our being, never accomplished once and for all, through the action of the Spirit of the risen Christ. Metanoia takes us out of our self-centered outlook and our limited and self-interested actions and brings us into God’s today, where we become witnesses to a real Presence, that of the universal Body of Christ.

At the very beginning of the Gospels, Jesus calls us to a radical new way of life, saying: “This is the time of fulfillment. The kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel” (Mk 1:15). The word “repent” in Greek is metanoia — 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. Living Metanoia 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. We 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. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Fr. Dave Pivonka, TOR, is the president of Franciscan University of Steubenville. He has served for more than thirty years as a spiritual director, retreat leader, and formation director, and also served as the director of Franciscan Pathways. He is a well-known author, conference speaker, and pilgrimage leader. Fr. Pivonka is active in the charismatic renewal and serves on the board of Renewal Ministries.

Look around you. You've noticed it, right? The Christian community seems to be looking more and more like the world around us: grief, chronic illness, mental health challenges, broken marriages, addiction--aren't these supposed to be the things Jesus sets us free from? And yet, it doesn't seem to be working anymore, does it? Has the Gospel of Jesus somehow lost its' power? Absolutely not! Kent and Heather McKean served in the full-time ministry for over 15 years across the United States and abroad, which has provided a unique insight into some of the challenges facing members and leaders alike within the Christian churches. For years, Kent and Heather tried to ignore the growing discontent and disillusionment they witnessed in their congregations and within themselves until Heather found herself near death. After years of suffering from debilitating chronic illness, Heather used the methods described in this book to heal from all major health issues. She also experienced an unexpected but radical transformation in her faith and relationship with God. Kent witnessed his wife's incredible change and was inspired to dig deep into his limiting beliefs around himself and God, finding profound transformation in his own life. From that time on, they answered the call to share this information with the world.Since 2013, Kent and Heather McKean have been on a journey of discovery. Through their personal work and work with hundreds of clients worldwide, the McKean's created the Metanoia Method(R) to help people understand God's intended connection between the brain, body, and Bible. The Greek word used for repentance in the Bible is metanoia, meaning "mind change." True biblical repentance (metanoia) requires a radical change of mind. Using the latest research in brain science, psychoneuroimmunology, quantum psychology, and the mind/body connection, Kent and Heather show us how the Bible not only backs up the latest scientific findings but expands upon them. Mind-opening and life-altering, The Metanoia Method is sure to stir heart and soul. Now more than ever, we need to challenge the beliefs of our "brokenness" and step into faith and healing. Are you ready to change your mind?

From the PREFACE. The first of these Essays appeared in the "American Church Review" for July, 1881 - following the memorable day in May when the Revised Version of the New Testament was issued. The paper was soon afterwards reprinted separately, and in 1882 was put into book form by the present publisher. Although its point was made timely by the revision, and by the astonishing fact that, in a work expressly undertaken in this age to correct the misapprehensions of a former age, a mistranslation involving such consequences had been over-passed and perpetuated, yet the Essay did not set out to be a criticism of the New Version in this particular. It could not help falling into something like it, but its main purpose was to draw attention to, and to be a popular exposition of, a word in whose enormous potentiality of meaning lay, as I believed, a more true and more catholic, a more spiritual and more philosophical, interpretation of Christianity. The Essay could have done as well for this-with a little modification-if the revisers had adopted a new rendering which was, in any degree, sympathetic with the real import of the original. As such, I am glad to say-after the novelty of the New Version had passed-the Essay seems to have been accepted: simply as an exposition in itself, that might at any time be in order; and as a contribution, called for under the circumstances, to the knowledge and the spirit which ought to inspire that comprehensive English expression or that happy combination of words-varying according to their connection in the text -which may venture sometime hence to represent the idea of (Metanoia); a word of whose fullness, in its initial position, the New Testament itself can be the only adequate translation, for, in that initial position, it is the key-note of its whole strain. There was nothing new in the view itself. If there had been, it could not have been true. It was as old as the apostolic age. And the revival of it was only an attempt to uncover and clear out a partially choked well. The Greek expression lay directly under the eye of any reader of the original, manifestly opening down to a great depth, provided his eye was disengaged enough from prepossessions to be alive to the fact. The word bore the hint of what it was on its very face: an intimation that the whole inward nature of man was appealed to, all its springs of action, all its possibilities of affection. Every scholar was aware of its literal meaning- and that meaning alone was in itself enough to suggest the dropping of an exploring plummet. Why this was not done, why what was so obvious was overlooked, perhaps the second Essay may explain....

“The contents of this volume consist largely of the Smyth Lectures delivered at Columbia Theological Seminary, 1941. Chapters III and VI have been completely rewritten and there has been some revision in each of the other four. The conclusions stated in these chapters have grown out of firsthand investigation of the materials lying in the twenty-seven ‘canonical books’ of the New Testament. The method pursued has been to study the New Testament directly, rather than to read what others say about it. It is an increasingly strong conviction with me that we as ministers have not done enough of this kind of study. Reference to the various theories of authorship, date, and provenance of the ‘books’ has been studiously avoided, for the simple reason that I wanted to examine the New Testament as a body of writings expressing the convictions and faith of the Early Church.” —From the Preface
