Reviews

"Colleen Derr speaks of Christian formation as if the Holy Spirit actually matters. Her writing is carefully nuanced between the work of the Spirit and the work of the person as compelled by the Holy Spirit. She operates with a rich pneumatology and creates a compelling vision for what a transformed church might look like. Bathed in Scripture, this book is a helpful tool for anyone who desires to communicate in a way that actually affects lives."
Amanda J. Drury, associate professorof practical theology, Indiana Wesleyan University
"Renewing Communication is more than just a book. It is a guide based on a biblical foundation, solid research, life stories, and compelling writing that stretches readers to think beyond themselves and the present. The audience for this work is vast-church leaders both lay and clergy, parents, business leaders at all levels, global leaders, political leaders, and academic leaders. It would serve as an effective resource for groups of all combinations of backgrounds. I can only imagine what would happen in our world if readers would be courageous enough to follow what has been written here. Great Hope!"
Jo Anne Lyon, Ambassador and General Superintendent Emerita, The Wesleyan Church
"This splendid book is truly transformational. Read it and grow as a godly communicator in every aspect of your life."
Quentin Schultze, professor of communication emeritus, Calvin College
