Repentance isn’t just about saying “I’m sorry”—it’s an invitation for God to move with transforming power. What would you do if Jesus showed up beside you right now? Would you keep going as you are—or would everything change? In this episode, Hunter Dockery shares powerful stories from the global mission field where authentic repentance has sparked revival. Whether you're in a season of radical change or simply facing the daily grind, this conversation reframes repentance—not as punishment, but as the doorway to renewal and awakening.

• What happens when God shows up? (03:47 )
