I recently came across this video and thought it worth sharing. Generally anything by Dallas Willard says is worth sharing. I like more than anything how he places emphasis on developing the tools to regularly commune with God. He doesn’t jump to programs and he doesn’t say that they should be in this church service or that but more importantly he focuses our attention on cultivating the inner life. His greatest concern is in equipping people to be just like Jesus would be if He were in their shoes, with their opportunities, talents and dispositions. I appreciated his desire for us to really grapple with what Jesus said about how to live this life whether it’s dealing with anger, suffering, persecution, money or anything we interact with.
