Spiritual formation in a Christian tradition answers a specific human question: ‘What kind of person am I going to be?’ It is the process of establishing the character of Christ in the person. That’s all it is.  (Dallas Willard Quotes) In one way or another, it is a common mistake to think transformation is all in the will. And it isn’t! It’s in the mind - how we think, what occupies our minds, and so forth. It’s in our feelings. It’s in our body.  (Dallas Willard Quotes) We Christians should be aware that there’s something at stake in cultural participation that we wouldn’t have been concerned about if all we did was worry about the messages in culture.  (Dallas Willard Quotes) The different parts of the automobile like the ignition switch, the various buttons, the steering wheel - the interfaces between the driver and the machine - is our spirit or heart.  (Dallas Willard Quotes) 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 Quotes) When pastors don’t have rich spiritual lives with Christ, they become victimized by other models of success - models conveyed to them by their training, by their experience in the church, or just by our culture.  (Dallas Willard Quotes) The Bible defines almost nothing because it isn’t a book for scholars and philosophers or free thinkers. It’s a book for people who want help. It’s primarily a book for pastors. They’re the ones that can use it in a way so that it actually achieves its purpose.  (Dallas Willard Quotes) You really can’t justify anything else but giving your whole attention to spiritual formation in Christ.  (Dallas Willard Quotes) So many people would like to have guidance from God because obviously, if you have a word from God, it’s the best possible thing. But they don’t relate that to life as a whole. Often they want guidance as a way of opting out of the responsibility of making decisions.  (Dallas Willard Quotes) Hearing God is about the very specific issue of what it means to live with guidance in our life  (Dallas Willard Quotes) God’s aim in human history is the creation of an inclusive community of loving persons, with himself included as its primary sustainer and most glorious inhabitant.  (Dallas Willard Quotes) The prospering of God’s cause on earth depends upon his people thinking well  (Dallas Willard Quotes) Today we are apt to downplay or disregard the importance of good thinking to strong faith; and some, disastrously, even regard thinking as opposed to faith.  (Dallas Willard Quotes) 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 Quotes) A leader enables people to love and honor the role they play in the organization or group they are part of  (Dallas Willard Quotes) The transformation of the social world is at its heart the transformation of personal relations. That’s the key to transforming society in the larger arena.  (Dallas Willard Quotes) If you don’t have a teacher you can’t have a disciple  (Dallas Willard Quotes) I’m practicing the discipline of not having to have the last word  (Dallas Willard Quotes) Grace is not opposed to effort; it’s opposed to earning  (Dallas Willard Quotes) The first act of love is always the giving of attention  (Dallas Willard Quotes) The will is transformed by experience, not information  (Dallas Willard Quotes) It’s very difficult to be right about something without hurting someone with it  (Dallas Willard Quotes) Kingdom obedience is kingdom abundance  (Dallas Willard Quotes) We are unceasing spiritual beings with an eternal destiny in God’s great universe  (Dallas Willard Quotes) The truly powerful ideas are precisely the ones that never have to justify themselves  (Dallas Willard Quotes) As we mature in Christ, it is actually possible to outgrow fear  (Dallas Willard Quotes) God does not ‘love’ us without liking us  (Dallas Willard Quotes) The kingdom of God is the true ecology of the human soul  (Dallas Willard Quotes) We are built to live in the kingdom of God. It is our natural habitat  (Dallas Willard Quotes) Projects of personal transformation rarely if ever succeed by accident, drift or imposition  (Dallas Willard Quotes)
