“I finally, this evening, confessed my sins and got to work somewhat. It seems so utterly hypocritical to go on as though no sin had been committed without some kind of penance, but God says there is only one penance—Jesus’ sacrifice on Calvary, Jesus’ blood. I plead it and go on, knowing that I shall fall again”
--Tom Carson, quoted in Memoirs of an Ordinary Pastor, D.A. Carson.
