Overview:
The subtitle explains it all: "People in need of change helping people in need of change." This is a book about one-on-one personal ministry within the life of the church. Christians do not need to be trained in counseling techniques in order to understand when they are in need of change. Moreover, God has placed them in the lives of others to help them to become more like Christ.
