Now he invites you to open your mind to the Holy Spirit’s paradigm-shifting power. This Changes Everything is your essential guidebook for how God is transforming the world through people just like you. Discover new movements of God’s Spirit that are turning the tide against the evil one, opening wide the doors of heaven to usher in God’s reign on the earth.

Find clear, biblical answers to questions such as:
- Is wealth a legitimate tool of the church?
- How do today’s workplace apostles lead in spiritual battle?

This Changes Everything fearlessly tackles theologically profound and extremely important biblical subjects in a clear, lucid and practical way. C. Peter Wagner brilliantly distills the paradigm shifts that have transformed his life and a theology that has been the foundation for more than 50 years of fruitful ministry around the world. This is a must read for those who want to hear what the Holy Spirit is saying to His church today!
Dr. Che Ahn, President and Founder, Harvest International Ministry, Senior Pastor, HRock Church, Pasadena, California
My approach to my personal relationship with God and to ministry is that of simple, childlike faith. However, Dr. Wagner’s scholarly and strategically written book has both provoked and invited me to deeply examine mindsets that might have restricted my experience in God. When I started reading it, I could not put it down. I am convinced you won’t either . . . and don’t be surprised if you encounter some profound paradigm shifts.
Patricia King, Founder of XPMinistries and XPMedia
This Changes Everything will cause you to take a step back and really think about what you believe. At times challenging to classic doctrinal thinking, it will cause you to dive into the Scriptures, wrestle with deep truths, and empower you to know why you believe what you believe. Whether you agree with everything written in these pages or not, it will compel you forward in your pursuit of truth, revelation and understanding into some of the most crucial paradigms of thought facing the church today. C. Peter Wagner magnificently communicates these paradigms in a down to earth and understandable way.
Matt Sorger, Prophetic and Practical-life Minister, Head of Matt Sorger Ministries
