Purchase options and add-ons

Every honest Christian knows the need for change. But how to get there? How do you move forward from struggles both big and small with your faith? And how does our faith in God impact our everyday thoughts, feelings, and actions?

This six-session small group resource gives Christians an opportunity to reflect on one particular area in their lives and then to learn more about how God changes us to become more like Jesus Christ. All of us struggle to love God and those around us, but God has promised to keep working on us. And the Lord always keeps his promises. The change that his gospel produces will make your life and your relationships truly beautiful. This self-contained resource with Leader's Notes will encourage small group participants to understand and apply a biblical view of change to their lives and relationships.

Real Change: Becoming More Like Jesus in Everyday Life is based on the CCEF model of change from David Powlisons course, Dynamics of Biblical Change. The easy-to-use six lesson format and included leader's guide, guides Christians toward an honest discussion of there own struggles while providing an understanding of how a relationship with Jesus Christ brings change.

Topics addressed include understanding how we typically respond to trouble, how the cross of Christ brings comfort, help, and change, and how we can grow to be like Jesus in the hardest circumstances through our faith.

Book is very good will be very helpful and rate it would rate it 5 stars for it's content. Sold and shipped and priced as new from Amazon, but was used and contained much writing. Acceptable used book at best. I would have to pay and go to PO to return, so will keep it as it is good material. Will probably order a new copy from the publisher. Good situation to put into practice the content of the book lol.

    Excellent book - used it for a Bible study and I can honestly say, it deeply impacted the hearts and faith of those who were in the class. Material is rich yet easy to move through. It is a great study for a small group (6-10) for it encourages great interaction and discussion.

    Barely into the new year, the struggle is real. The resolutions many people made have already failed or their commitment is waning. Then the mindset starts to set in that this year will be like every other year, and no change will take place. Yet, the reality is that while the struggle is real, the change can be too! It is this very truth found in Real Change: Becoming More Like Jesus in Everyday Life, a new work by Andrew Nicholls and Helen Thorne.

    With the well-known David Powlison serving as editor, Nicholls and Thorne use the basis of CCEF's "Dynamic of Biblical Change" course to provide the reader with a 6-session course study guide on how to change for real. With the "Three Trees" diagram as a visual, the 6 sessions walk the reader through how God changes people, from understanding the influences and seeing their sinful hearts to looking to the cross in repentance and faith in Christ, Real Change trains the Christian in the right change, into the image of Christ, and encourages the context for biblical change.

    Real Change: Becoming More Like Jesus in Everyday Life by Andrew Nicholls and Helen Thorne is the resource to equip churches with the gospel truth that changes lives. It provides those who are wanting to change with the right motive and means to change. With a leader's guide to help give some direction in each session, the study is designed to be used in groups, particularly in the local church context. The study guide dives into the reality of sin, the complexities of our struggle, and the clarity of the gospel. Additionally, Nicholls and Thorne are sensitive to the time and culture we live in, making it clear that if there are legal matters at play or if there is abuse going on, the respective authorities need to be alerted (Nicholls and Thorne 70, 72). Still, in their sensitivity to those issues, they do not shy away from the seriousness of addressing personal sin. That's because real change only occurs when we admit we have a real problem. A real problem can only be addressed when believers are real with one another about their struggle and their need for the Savior. Real change needs the accountability of a real church. So, if you're looking to find lasting and real change this year, resolve to get a copy of Real Change by Andrew Nicholls and Helen Thorne and go through it with others in your church. Be ready to be changed!

    Real Change: Becoming More Like Jesus in Everyday Life  is a new study guide recently released from New Growth Press and CCEF. Real Change is meant to be used in one-on-one discipleship as a guide to help promote Christlike change in the reader's life. "Each week the Bible study, reflection, and discussion in Real Change will help you understand how God works with us. You will reflect on your own heart. You will reflect on life's hardships. You will reflect on God's mercies. And you will come to better understand how your Savior meets you in your particular life situation." 

    This type of study is carried out using the Three Trees Diagram that will be familiar to anyone with a biblical counseling background. I was first introduced to this diagram in How People Change. 

    Real Change is divided into six sessions that are drawn from this diagram based off of Jeremiah 17:5-8. These sessions are: 

    Change
    Heat
    Thorns
    Cross
    Fruit
    Real Change
    These sessions are meant to be applied to particular life situations to understand a biblical framework for handling trials and struggles in relation to our standing in Christ and for growing in sanctification. Each session is meant to cover a week and has a particular aim or goal it is trying to meet. This aim is worked out through reading Scripture, reading some summary thoughts by the authors, answering specific questions that are to be drawn out of the Scriptures, and homework that is meant to apply what was covered in the session. All of this is to be discussed during a weekly meeting.

    This is meant to be a one-on-one study session, but leaders need not fear if they feel unequipped to lead. The last 40 pages of Real Change are devoted to a Leader's Guide that will help any Christian as they work through this book with someone else. Real Change is an excellent book because it relies on Scripture throughout. This isn't a self-help book, but rather a tool to be used to grow closer to God through "his direct working and by the encouragement and prayers of other people." 

    I am confident that any Christian that decides to work through this book with a friend will be greatly edified and encouraged. 

    I received a copy of this book from New Growth Press in exchange for an honest review.
