About this listen

In this episode, Tyler Smith, College Leader of Zeteo at Northcrest Baptist Church, teaches from Luke 3 on the message of John the Baptist and the call to Turn Around.


Repentance isn’t just “trying to be better.” It’s a complete 180—a turning away from sin and self, and turning toward God in faith. Like John’s audience, we’re reminded that salvation isn’t found in family heritage, church attendance, or good works—it’s found only in repentance and faith in Christ.


We’ll explore together:


  • What repentance really means (and what it doesn’t)

  • How true repentance produces fruit in our lives

  • Why baptism is an outward sign of an inward change

  • The sobering truth of judgment for those who refuse to turn back to God



John’s message is as urgent now as it was then: God calls us to stop walking the wrong way, admit our need for Him, and receive His forgiveness through Christ. Repentance is costly—it takes humility, surrender, and change—but it leads to life, hope, and eternal joy.
