Dallas Willard
Image
Those who have been touched by forgiveness and new life and have thus entered into God's rule become, like Jesus, bearers of that rule.
Dallas Willard
Image
Spiritual formation in Christ moves us toward a total interchange of our ideas and images for his.

The kingdom of God is the true ecology of the human soul.
Dallas Willard
Image
When the light comes into a room, we do not have to say, Now what are we going to do about the darkness? It's gone!
Dallas Willard
Image
The humility that cringes in order that reproof may be escaped or favor obtained is as unchristian as it is profoundly immoral.
Dallas Willard
Image
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
Image
The most important thing in your life is not what you do it's who you become. That's what you will take into eternity.

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.
