Renovation of the Heart : An Interactive Student Edition
Putting on the Character of Christ
With easy-to-understand examples, review questions, and explanations of key words, learn how to understand one of the most complicated and important lessons of life: putting on the character of Christ.
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.
