About this listen

In this sermon, Andrew Scotland reflects on repentance and spiritual contentment through the account of John the Baptist in Matthew 3. He challenges listeners to move beyond surface-level religion and New Year resolutions, calling instead for a genuine, heart-level relationship with Jesus Christ.

Warning against drifting through faith or prioritising comfort over biblical holiness, he highlights the urgency of true repentance using the image of the axe at the root of the tree. The message calls for lives that bear real fruit, marked by surrender, obedience, and a willingness to follow God’s lead rather than relying on empty traditions or personal effort.
