More quotes by Dallas Willard
Jesus is actually looking for people he can trust with his power.
Dallas Willard
What a child does when not told what to do is the final indicator of what and who that child is.
Dallas Willard
If we are right on the inside, we will address these issues straight-forwardly and take a stand on them, and, if necessary, die for them. We will be that committed.

Dallas Willard
When we pass through what we call death, we do not loose the world. Indeed, we see it for the first time as it really is.
Dallas Willard
You really can't justify anything else but giving your whole attention to spiritual formation in Christ.
Dallas Willard
Paul followed Jesus by living as He lived. And how did he do that? Through activities and ways of living that would train his whole personality to depend upon the risen Christ as Christ trained Himself to depend upon the Father.
Dallas Willard
The soul's order is re-established in God through the law.
Dallas Willard
Business is a primary arrangement on God's part for people to love one another and serve one another.
Dallas Willard
Spiritual formation cannot, in the nature of the case, be a 'private' thing, because it is a matter of whole-life transformation. You need to seek out others in your community who are pursuing the renovation of the heart.
Dallas Willard
Hearing God is about the very specific issue of what it means to live with guidance in our life.
