Editorial Reviews
Life is about progression, not perfection. The good news is we all have the power to change. But change doesn't happen overnight--it takes time, it takes principles, it takes discipline, and it takes the power of the Holy Spirit. The Power to Change teaches us how to apply these things so we can experience transformation in every area of our lives. As someone who has been transformed by the life and leadership of Craig Groeschel, I know this book will help you experience the same. Michael Todd, New York Times #1 bestselling author; lead pastor, Transformation Church
This is the book Craig Groeschel was born to write. I felt like I was being let behind the curtain of a life lived at full throttle. Is it a roadmap to getting unstuck? Is it a manual for the kind of life you know you were designed to live? Is it an invitation to an adventure with God? Yes, a thousand times, yes! Jon Acuff, New York Times bestselling author, Soundtracks: The Surprising Solution to Overthinking
Craig Groeschel makes change feel possible. It isn't easy to stop what we shouldn't do and start what we should, but Craig serves as a compassionate guide and makes change feel accessible with simple exercises and introspective questions. Jennie Allen, New York Times bestselling author; founder and visionary, IF: Gathering
If you've struggled to change your habits, this book is an immense help. I've read more than a few habit books, but this one made the power to change even clearer and easier to do than ever before. Read this book! Carey Nieuwhof, bestselling author, At Your Best; host, The Carey Nieuwhof Leadership Podcast
I often think that when people want to change, they look to remedies and a wide range of self-help solutions. But this book points you to supernatural lasting change by pointing you to the love of our heavenly Father and power in his name. Pastor Craig does it again, writing in such a clear way how change is possible because of God's power in us, not our own. Sadie Robertson Huff, author; speaker; founder, Live Original
Newton's first law of motion says that an object at rest will stay at rest, and an object in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by a greater external force. Change will happen only when something greater compels it to happen. In The Power to Change, Craig Groeschel provides the blueprint for harnessing the power of biblical truth to change situations we may have long given up on out of hopelessness. This book will truly change your life. Nona Jones, business executive; speaker; author, Killing Comparison

I was thoroughly captivated by the insights on transformation found in this book. The expression "Who before do " has left an indelible mark on my psyche, resonating with me deeply. Craig Groeschel's work is nothing short of masterful, as he not only provides practical steps for instigating change but also encourages readers to examine the reasons behind their desire for transformation. He artfully combines both spiritual and pragmatic approaches to make the process of change feel achievable. I would enthusiastically encourage anyone to read this book, as it is a genuine masterpiece deserving of a perfect score.

I love how Craig Groeschel makes life change practical and breaks it down into easier to implement steps and making them into regular habits. If you want to make changes that can be permanent, then you need to read this book!

We all have things we'd like to magically change, but it can be really hard to actually do it in practice. I really liked the thinking behind this book—why we do the things we do, and how it's tied in to how we see ourselves. Great reminders that we need help from outside ourselves, and that Someone is available and willing to help us change for the better when we ask Him. Change from the inside out. I also appreciate the funny, personal, casual, and vulnerable style that makes this easy to read and identify with. Thank you for this book!
