The truly powerful ideas are precisely the ones that never have to justify themselves.

Image
Solitude well practiced will break the power of busyness, haste, isolation, & loneliness.
Dallas Willard
Image
The core of the person is what he or she loves, and that is bound up with what they worship - that insight recalibrates the radar for cultural analysis. The rituals and practices that form our loves spill out well beyond the sanctuary. Many secular liturgies are trying to get us to love some other kingdom and some other gods.

Image
It's just stunning to watch churches struggle to get mission statements when there it is, the Great Commission, and they should simply do what it says.
Dallas Willard
Image
I would say the soul would be more than the engine. The soul would be like the computer system that coordinates everything, from the smog device to the fuel injection system to the brakes.

Image
Jesus is actually looking for people he can trust with his power.

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.

Image
When the will is enslaved to a desire, it will in turn enslave the mind.
Dallas Willard
Image
Now, of course, you have guidance devices and all sorts of things. The soul would be more like the way this is all hooked together, a system of coordination.
Dallas Willard
Image
Hearing God is about the very specific issue of what it means to live with guidance in our life.
Dallas Willard
Image
Bodily pleasure is not in itself a bad thing. But when it is exalted to a necessity and we become dependent upon it, then we are slaves of our body and its feelings. Only misery lies ahead.
Dallas Willard
Image
Business is a primary arrangement on God's part for people to love one another and serve one another.
Dallas Willard
Image
Feelings too must be renovated: old ones removed in many cases, or at least thoroughly modified, and new ones installed or at least heightened into a new prominence.
Dallas Willard
Image
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
Image
The idea of having faith in Jesus has come to be totally isolated from being his apprentice and learning how to do what he said.
Dallas Willard
Image
You can live opposite of what you profess, but you cannot live opposite of what you believe.
Dallas Willard
Image
What we can accomplish as good as it may be does not compare to what God can accomplish
Dallas Willard
Image
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
Image
The hardest thing about leadership is the intimacy it requires.
Dallas Willard
Image
Kingdom praying and its efficacy is entirely a matter of the innermost heart's being totally open and honest before God. It is a matter of what we are saying with our whole being, moving with resolute intent and clarity of mind into the flow of God's action.
