In Scripture, the shofar gathers, warns, announces, and wakes people up. As Rosh Hashanah approaches, the sound of the shofar reminds us that repentance is not vague regret. It is a return to the God who calls before the heart grows hard.
Many believers have lost this kind of deliberate preparation. We move quickly from one event to another, one sermon to another, and one crisis to another. We may confess sin in broad terms while avoiding the specific habits, words, resentments, and divided loyalties that require attention. Scripture gives us a slower and more honest way.
