Heart shift : the 2 degree difference that will change your heart, your home, and your health
by John Trent
On This Page
Description
Beginning a new series, this title explains the simple, very biblical premise that making positive, lasting changes in life comes from a series of "two degree changes"--changes made in spiritual life, marriage or parenting, and even health that can lead believers closer to God's heart.Tags

Trent's theory is that if someone is just two degrees off course that given enough time and distance that they will miss their target by miles. Said another way, if we are not on the right bearing all the time then we might drift off course and to our ruin. He is technically right, but he misses his own target. The truth is that we have moving targets in life and we always need to be adjusting our present bearing to match the new course.
This book also pushes the concept that ALL people fall into 1 of 4 personality categories. Yes, another one of these self help books which places people into compartments so that we can all better understand ourselves and others. Presto, I'm a lion and you are an otter, so let's just leave things at show more that. Wrong.
So, you just read the book in this review. There is no need to buy it - go find something else better to do. show less
