What if change isn't about trying harder? When life brings us to the end of ourselves, God waits there---not to reform our behavior but to excavate our true identity. If you are stuck in a rut of performing and failing, Changed By God is for you. Rather than prescribe ineffective methods for controlling our behavior, this book proposes that change is a God-inspired, God-accomplished feat. Whether or not we are radically transformed in His presence depends on our willingness to yield to His campaign for change, which is based less on our behavior and more on the beliefs driving it. If we want to become the people God created us to be, we must stop trying to fix ourselves, which is God's work, and focus on our part: allowing Him to strip us of everything that contaminates or dilutes the real us. Rather than helping us to be good, this process free us to act like ourselves. Changed By God will take you on a journey of surrender. All you stand to lose is your self-righteous facade, your pursuit of counterfeits, your false identity, your personal strongholds, and your small dreams.
