Some would call him Gregory the Great (c. A.D 540-March 12, 604). Others would call him the first pope. I would not give him either of those terms but that doesn’t mean that he should be dismissed completely. Indeed, on an issue much needed in our day, repentance, I would call him a genius.
“Repentance is weeping for what one has done
and not doing what one weeps for.”
Gregory I
“God grant us this heart, this passion, that we would truly mourn over everything that offends You, and live instead in obedience to all that delights You. Make us a people who loves Your will. Give us new hearts to embrace everything You desire for us and from us, and to act in obedience with the haste of one who knows and loves You. Purify Your church that the nations would know Your goodness. Revive Your Church O God. In the name and for the glory of Christ we ask it. Amen.”
