How God Changes People: Conversion stories from the Bible

How God Changes People

Conversion Stories from the Bible

A sneaky little thief meets Jesus and then he starts giving away his money instead – that’s Zacchaeus. A ruthless thug chases down Christians but after a run in with the risen Lord, he joins forces with the people he once hated – that’s Paul. A young woman sits on the river bank, when she hears the Word of God, a quiet change warms her heart and another sinner is saved, a life changed and an eternity secured – that’s Lydia.

These people and others in this book were all changed by God through his Word. And we can read about them in his Word – the Bible.
