  <default_description>In many ways, the church today has more consumers than committed participants. We see church merely as an event we attend or an organization we belong to, rather than as a calling that shapes our entire life.  &lt;P&gt;Many of us would be relieved if God had place dour sanctification in the hands of trained professionals, but that simply is not the biblical model. God's plan is that through the faithful ministry of every part, the whole body will grow to maturity in Christ.  &lt;P&gt;Tripp explains how his work follows an &quot;all of my people, all of the time&quot; model. If you followed the Lord for a thousand years, you would still need the ministry of the body of Christ as much as you did the day you first believed. This need will remain until our sanctification is complete in Glory.  &lt;P&gt;This is a comprehensive treatment of how God uses people as tools of change in the lives of others, people who themselves are in need of change.</default_description>

At the center of his philosophy is the wonderful, difficult, biblical truth: we need change at the level of our hearts.

    <body><![CDATA[Katarina recommended this book and I immediately grabbed it. It belongs with such thought provoking, inspiring, hopeful, practical books as you would expect from Nouwen, Manning, Peck, Tozer... I read bits and pieces then put it down for contemplation. i have underlined and quoted a lot of it, and s...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/30632647">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I read this book three times as part of a small group experience.  Everyone in the group was profoundly affected by the insight gained into  one's own heart.  The aim of the book is to give us new eyes to view our friends and neighbors, to help us minister to them in eternally meaningful ways.

    <body><![CDATA[This is an excellent book.  It is very biblical and very practical.  It is all about how God uses broken, messed up people to sanctify other broken, messed up people.  Tripp always brings everything back to the greater story of Redemption, and he also gives very clear points of how to ask good quest...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/37424042">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I thought I should at least give this a cursory glance for a couple of reasons:  The first is, Mars Hill's counseling/redemption groups etc swear by it.  The second reason is because it is the book my cousin-in-law gave to Lahela and I to dissuade us from studying heathen psychology and getting suck...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/26614514">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[A great book for learning how to speak to people's hearts rather than doing behavior modification. Tripp, though wordy at times, emphasizes the importance of incarnational ministry.<br/><br/>&quot;We must not offer people a system of redemption, a set of insights and principles. We offer people a ...]]></body>
