Read this book slowly, prayerfully and watch as God works in and through your life.
Format: Paperback
How People Change is written by Timothy S. Lane and Paul David Tripp. Both men are experienced Pastors, counselors and Professors. Every year tons of books come on the market that seeks to help readers grow in understanding their problems and overcoming their difficulties. On the back cover of the book Dr. Mark Dever offers this endorsement of How People Change: This book is applied theology. It is about heat, the cross, and fruit. It's about present grace. In sixteen short and well-illustrated chapters, the wonderful prospect of change for the good is held out for the reader. We are called to consider our circumstances and our responses to them, and beneath that to examine our hearts' desires and to afresh to Christ's Cross.
This book will challenge you and confront you in ways that will make you uncomfortable. This is not a book of "feel good self-help" where you will learn six to ten steps to be a better person. This book begins with proclaiming the bad news that man is a sinner in need of a Savior and then proceeds to explain the remedy to sin which is found in Christ alone.
Perhaps you've read a self-help book before, or you've listened to other self-help guru's on TV, and found their advice to be wanting. Drs. Lane and Tripp in How People Change lead their readers through what biblical change is by first helping the reader see their sin so they can behold the Savior who longs to change you through and through. In this book, you will learn to see how God is at work to make you the person you were created to be. In this book, you will be confronted to examine your life in light of the Bible which will be painful at times.
Most importantly this book will help you grow in the Gospel. This book will help you grow through the trials we all experience by not relying on yourself but on the Gospel. This book will help you grow in effectiveness in ministry, because the message of this book is aimed to help you grow in personal holiness unto the Lord. Perhaps you have a struggling marriage- this book will help address heart issues rather than surface issues that are affecting your relationship with God and others. This book will address, confront and challenge your pride, your self-reliance, and your self-righteousness. Yet, this book never misses a beat when it discusses the bad news but also presses the reader to go lay down their burdens, cares, wants, needs, anxieties and problems at the Cross of Christ.
Dr. Dever is correct in his description of this book- it will challenge you to consider your circumstances, your responses to them, and beneath that to examine your hearts desires and turn afresh to the Cross. Take up and read this book! Read this book slowly, and digest its message. Read this book prayerfully and discuss it with others.
I heartily recommend this book for new and mature Christians. The authors explain the Gospel in a way that is thoroughly biblical and yet practical. The strength of this book is that it is thoroughly Gospel-centered.
As I read this book, I was challenged and confronted by areas in my own life that needed to change. As I continued reading the book, and finally finished the book, I saw more clearly how God was at work in my life. The authors achieve their Gospel-goals wonderfully in this book. I can only pray (as I'm sure the authors do and many others) that many more believers take up this book, and not only read it but heed its message.

Highly recommended!
“How people Change” is the second best book I have read this year (the first being “The Gospel according to Jesus” by John MacArthur). There is indeed a “gospel gap” (as the authors call it) among Bible-believing Christians today. We believe the gospel for our past forgiveness and future hope, but often forget that the gospel applies to present everyday living as well. They focus our problem on heart idolatry - we have replaced Christ with something else! They put it this way – “The heart is the steering wheel of every human being. Everything we do is shaped and controlled by what our hearts desire. That is why the Bible is very clear that God wants our hearts. Only when God has your heart does he have you. As much as we are affected by our broken world and the sins of others against us, our greatest problem is the sin that resides in our hearts. That is why the message of the gospel is that God transforms our lives by transforming our hearts.” And again, “Even though life is hard, it is not the hardships that cause us to respond as we do. Our responses are shaped by the thoughts and motives of our hearts (Heb. 4:12).” The authors also remind us that in Christ and His gospel, we have a new record, a new power and are set free from the enslaving power of sin. They write, “With the new record and new power we have received, we are set free from the enslaving power of sin and the condemnation of the law. We are dead to the world and we have power over the Evil One who tempts us with worldly Christ-replacements. We don’t have to be controlled by them anymore! We are now free to live, act, think, and believe in new and surprising ways.” The authors also remind us of our marriage or union to Christ, and how God designed heart change to take place in the context of community (the church) – something we conveniently ignore in our mostly individualistic culture! The latter part of the book focuses on four themes: Heat, Thorns, Cross and Fruit. “Heat” is the pressures of everyday life and includes blessings, temptations and difficulties. “Thorns” is the ungodly response to the daily situations of life. “Cross” is the resources available in Christ to every believer. “Fruit” is the Godly response to the situation resulting from God’s work in the heart. With sharp Biblical insight and relevant everyday stories, the authors present a mirror in front of our souls, so that we see the hope & power of Christ and His gospel for everyday living. Heart change is possible! Read this book and apply its truths! I hope to do the same.

Lasting change
Format: Paperback
What does it take for lasting change to take root in your life? This is the question Timothy Lane and Paul Tripp tackle in the book. Both are biblical counselors and faculty at CCEF (Christian Counseling and Education Foundation - maybe the best biblical counseling group out there). Paul Tripp is also a pastor at Tenth Pres in Philadelphia.
The authors believe that in the lives of many believers (and a whole lot of churches) there is a "gospel gap." Many Christians are ineffective and unproductive because they see the good news of the gospel as the means of cleansing their past sins, and the way to be assured of a future hope. But they forget the power of the gospel to change their life in the hear and now.
Lane and Tripp use Jeremiah 17:5-10 as the source for their dominant metaphor for life change. This passage gives us a view of life that involves four elements.
1. Heat - This is the person's situation in daily life, with difficulties, blessings, and temptations.
2. Thorns - This is the person's ungodly response to the situation. It includes behavior, the heart driving the behavior, and the consequences that result.
3. Cross - This focuses on the presence of God in his redemptive glory and love. Through Christ, he brings comfort, cleansing, and the power to change.
4. Fruit - This is the person's new godly response to the situation resulting from God's power at work in the heart. It includes behavior, the heart renewed by grace, and the harvest of consequences that follow.
Each chapter has large sections of careful explanation of biblical passages. Lane and Tripp also use real life examples from their counseling and church ministry to illustrate the point. It's both theological and practical. It's a great book for those who do counseling, or even just general discipleship. It's a good book for those wanting to better understand the process of sanctification, and how they themselves can grow. I'm looking forward to looking through the curriculum based on the book, and see if we can find a venue to use it in our church.
Highly recommended!

Helpful but could be a little shorter
Format: Kindle
Disclaimer: I’ve read the Study Guide version and completed the Biblical Counseling training by City-to-City which went through the model prior to reading this book.
Personally I think this could be a very helpful introduction to people who are new to the model of biblical change. The book is full of explanations and examples which make the model practical.
However, I found the book a little too repetitive, and I felt like it could be a lot shorter than it is now. Any how, this book provides a very practical model that could benefit your ministry and help you in your personal growth. If you’re looking for something to go through with your small group, I actually recommend going straight forward to the Study Guide which sufficiently provides all the descriptions and examples needed.

Real Practical Biblical Christianity Explained.
Format: Paperback
This is truly an awesome book and a must have for every believe in Jesus Christ. No Christian home should be without this book. Tripp and Lane have done an excellent job in writing this book. This is NOT another self help book. This book begins with Christ and focuses on Christ all the way.
In this book, Tripp and Lane answer the question that serious Christians have been asking for some time, "why is the life style of professing Christians not different from that of their unsaved neighbors?" The answer according to Tripp and Lane is because most professing Christians have a huge gap in their understanding of the gospel.
In their words "Often there is a vast gap in our grasp of the gospel. It subverts our identity as Christians and our understanding of the present work of God. This gap undermines every relationship in our lives, every decision we make and every attempt to minister to others." They go on to say that because the gospel gap in our lives must be filled, "If we do not live with a gospel-shaped, Christ-confident and change-committed Christianity, that hole will get filled with other things. These things may seem plausible and even biblical, but they will be missing the identity-provision process core that is meant to fill every believer." Some of the things on the list will surprise you.
Using lots of case studies (real life examples with names changed), Tripp and Lane go on to show us how real change can happen in our lives and what it will look like as it is happening. This book is on its way to becoming a true Christian classic.
