Every church needs to be able to answer two questions. First, what is our plan for making disciples? And second, does our plan work?

Dallas Willard

There is no problem in human life that apprenticeship to Jesus cannot solve.
DALLAS WILLARD

Human Life Problem Solution
When we receive God’s gift of life by relying on Christ, we find that God comes to act with us as we rely on him in our actions.
DALLAS WILLARD

Act Action Come Gift God Life Ourselves
We live in a culture that has, for centuries now, cultivated the idea that the skeptical person is always smarter than one who believes. You can almost be as stupid as a cabbage as long as you doubt.
DALLAS WILLARD

Believe Culture Doubt Ideas Live Yourself
Knowing the ‘right answers’ does not mean we believe them. To believe them means to act as though they’re true.
DALLAS WILLARD

Answer Believe Right True
What is reality? The answer Jesus gives to this question is: God and his kingdom. That is what you can count on and what you have to come to terms with.

$Dallas Willard Quote - Even professing Christians, by and large, devote to their spiritual growth and well-being a tiny fraction of the time they devote to their body, and it is even tinier fraction if we include what they worry about.$

The key, then, to loving God is to see Jesus, to hold him before the mind with as much fullness and clarity as possible. It is to adore him.

The open secret of many Bible believing Churches is that a vanishingly small percentage of those talking about prayer and Bible reading are actually doing what they are talking about.

Anand Thakur
In Spiritual formation we are aiming at a character and life that is so shaped that the deeds of Christ routinely and easily come from what is inside.
DALLAS WILLARD

Anand Thakur
Theology is a part of our lives. It’s unavoidable. A thoughtless theology guides our lives with just as much force as a thoughtful and informed one.

Anand Thakur
My central claim is that we can become like Christ by doing one thing — by following him in the overall style of life he chose for himself.
DALLAS WILLARD

Choice God Life Myself Style
It’s very difficult to be right about something without hurting someone with it.
DALLAS WILLARD

Difficult Hurt Right
In solitude we find psychic distance, the perspective from which we can see, in the light of eternity, the created things that trap, worry, and oppress us.
DALLAS WILLARD

Anand Thakur
The ultimate freedom we have as human beings is the power to select what we will allow or require our minds to dwell upon.
DALLAS WILLARD

Anand Thakur
That’s the illusion – the idea that you can be all right on the inside and not act it out – and it has affected us in many ways. That’s a part of the idea that professing is enough.
