Most Christians would say that they want to be like Jesus, but what does this look like in practice? The really good news is that we don't need to wear flat sandals, speak Aramaic, ride donkeys and grow beards. Rather, the author takes us back to basics and shows us what the New Testament call to be like Jesus actually means. We learn how to become like Christ in godliness, in character, in serving, in compassion, in justice, in suffering and, last but certainly not least, in anticipation. As people reborn in Christ's image, we have the responsibility, and the Holy Spirit's help, to work things through in daily life so that we live like Jesus in our very different world today. This short book is biblical, practical, thought-provoking and accessible, and the latest in the popular IVP/Keswick Ministries series of study guides.

Reviews for Transformed: Becoming Like God´s Son
I’m happy to commend this study guide which will be of benefit to both individuals and small groups. It is packed with challenging biblical insights.
James Collins, Senior Minister, Purley Baptist Church
Seeing Jesus afresh through the lenses of this guide will stir your heart, open your mind, engage your imagination, and grow your desire to be like Christ in the whole of life. Far from ‘other worldly’, this study guide maps out some vital pathways for followers of Jesus through the gritty reality of everyday contexts and relationships. Yes, the terrain is challenging. But this is a grace-filled, Christ-dependent journey to become more like Jesus. Come join!
Tracy Cotterell, Managing Director, LICC
Becoming like Jesus is central to God’s agenda for every disciple so don’t read and engage with these studies unless you are ready and willing to change! Practical, thoughtful and designed for group learning, they will challenge you to reflect and act on what imitating Jesus looks like in your life and context
Patrick Mitchel, Principal, Belfast Bible College
This set of study notes from Derek Tidball would make a very useful course for church discipleship groups or home study groups. In challenging readers to grow more fully into the image of Christ, the studies do not default on practical application or suggestions for deeper reflection, and also indicate the rich Old Testament background to Jesus' ministry where appropriate. The explanatory notes at the back will be a great help to group discussion.
Dr Sally Nelson, Tutor, St Barnabas Theological Centre, Sheffield
Derek has once again opened the scriptures to help us see Jesus afresh. The format moves from study, through prayer, to action, so that the individual or group is open to the character of Jesus being formed in them. I been reading it on my way to a retreat and know it will prove useful.'
