Minding the Heart: The Way of Spiritual Transformation

The heart is the most important biblical
term for the person's nature and actions. Indeed, the heart is the
control center of life. It is the very place where God works to change
us. But how does this growth take place? How are Christians to discover
the steadfast spirit of David's psalm?

In Minding the Heart,
Robert L. Saucy offers insightful instruction on what spiritual
transformation is and how to achieve it. He shows how renewing one's
mind through meditation, action, and community can begin the process of
change, but ultimately the final change—the change that brings abundant
life—can only come through a vital relationship with God. "The renewing
of the heart is an inescapable human need," writes Saucy, "but the
solution lies only within the realm of the divine."

Drawing from
inspiring Bible passages as well as selected scientific studies, Saucy
demonstrates how to make lasting change so Christians can finally
achieve the joys of becoming more like Christ.
