From the Back Cover

Don't just be a Christian. Be like Jesus. "Keep vigilant watch over your heart; that's where life starts." --Proverbs 4:23, The Message We don't become Christians to stay the way we are. Instead, we are to be apprentices of Jesus Christ--to become more like Him every hour, every day, every year. Sounds good, but how does it happen? For starters, Christ's vision for your life starts from the inside out, not "outside in" like many Christians try to make it. That's because becoming an apprentice of Christ isn't like cramming for a test or trying to say the "right things" at church. It's a revolution of the heart that transforms your motives and perspectives. Respected authors Dallas Willard and Randy Frazee reach out to students with this promise: become like Christ and you'll discover the true purpose of your life. In other words, don't settle for being a Christian--learn to be like Jesus.

Customer Reviews

Very lean compared to original edition3
This Interactive Student Edition is very much tailored for the teenager. Though the themes of the the original edtion authored completely by Willard (this is co-authored with Randy Frazee) remain in tact, the depth at which those themes are discussed and the philosophical and theological weight is just not present in this edition. It has the perks of having very short chapters and therefore being easy to study by reading aloud to a group, but for a more in depth study of transformation of the heart, the original edition of Rennovation of the Heart is at a whole level higher.
