Change doesn't happen overnight for the Christian. Growth is a lifelong journey. In the How People Change Video Seminar, Paul Tripp and Tim Lane masterfully guide participants toward biblical truths that lead to a life of repentance and faith by inviting them to consider their circumstances, as well as their responses to them, and examining their heart's desire and turning toward Christ.
Featuring twelve teaching sessions by Paul David Tripp and Timothy S. Lane, the How People Change Video Seminar guides people in understanding how Christ's life, death, and resurrection bring lasting change. Through the introduction, twelve sessions, and conclusion, participants will be challenged to experience the deep-down change the gospel of Jesus Christ brings and find tools to understand the basic principles in the corresponding How People Change Study Guide and Facilitator Guide.
The How People Change Video Seminar helps participants understand the underlying motivations for their actions, giving them specific, practical help in changing long-standing patterns of behavior so they grow in love for God and others.
The small group study series includes a USB, study guide, and facilitator's guide. God uses his people as tools of change. With these resources, find out how you can be a part of that change in your personal or church-wide ministry.

"This book is applied theology. It's about heat, thorns, 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 turn afresh to Christ's cross."
Mark Dever, Pastor, Capitol Hill Baptist Church, Washington, DC

"Governments and agencies can legislate for people, resource people, teach people, but they can't change people. Jesus Christ can! It's that people-changing gospel that these study guides apply clearly, deeply, and perceptively to the relationships that Christians have with friends, neighbors, and families. London City Mission uses this material for training our entire team of 120 who are engaged in patient, sensitive, personal evangelism. These guides are an excellent even an essential preparation for that great work."
John Nicholls, DMin, Former Chief Executive, London City Mission, UK
