Some people think that only Christians can experience "real change" or "lasting change." However, such observations don't hold up in real life. Confusion about change often exists because our understanding of the nature of the heart is underdeveloped. Both unbelievers and believers can change their thoughts, desires, and choices, because doing so doesn't require a change of heart.
