When the Bible talks about the gift of a new heart, it doesn't mean a heart that is immediately perfected, but a heart that is capable of being changed. Jesus' work on the cross targets our hearts, our core desires and motivations, and when our hearts change, our behavior changes. A changed heart is the bright promise of the gospel and the goal of CCEFs How People Change by Christian counseling experts Timothy S. Lane and Paul David Tripp. How People Change explains the biblical pattern for change in a clear, practical way you can apply to the challenges of daily life. But change involves more than a biblical formula: you will see how God is at work to make you the person you were created to be. That powerful, loving, redemptive relationship is at the heart of all positive change you experience. Based on principles from the book, Lane and Tripp now offer the How People Change Study Guide for use in church-wide training, small group, Sunday school, youth group, or one-on-one Christian discipleship settings. These materials help participants to understand the underlying motivations for their actions and give them specific, practical help in changing long-standing patterns of behavior, so they grow in love for God and others. Each of the twelve lessons includes teaching, homework discussion, CPR, Central truth Personal application Relational application, detailed illustrations, group discussion guide, and Make It Real life applications. A self-explanatory Facilitator's Guide provides twelve lessons, directions on how to guide a small group through the Study Guide, extra content, homework discussion, detailed illustrations, and Make It Real life applications. Both the study guide and the facilitators guide are also available in Spanish as How People Change Workbook (study guide) and How People Change Leaders Guide (facilitators guide).
