More quotes by Dallas Willard

Dallas Willard
Keep eternity before the children.
Dallas Willard

Dallas Willard
It would be of course a low voltage spiritual life in which prayer was chiefly undertaken as a discipline, rather than as a way of co-labouring with God to accomplish good things and advancing his Kingdom purposes.
Dallas Willard
No matter how lost a person is, they still draw on their body. So the body would be more like the motor.
Dallas Willard
