  • 03. Worship as the Fine Texture of Real Life (2008) - Dallas Willard
    Sep 9 2024

    Worship as the Fine Texture of Real Life

    January 25, 2008

    At the 2008 Calvin College Symposium of Worship, Dallas spoke on “Worship as the Fine Texture of Real Life.” He explained what worship is and how it can become a part of everything we do.

    Dallas read these two definitions of worship:

    1. "In worship we engage ourselves with, dwell upon, and express the supreme greatness, beauty and goodness of God – primarily through thought and devotion of our wills, but usually also with the aid of words, rituals and symbols, frequently in union with others."
    — Dallas Willard (The Spirit of the Disciplines)

    2. "Worship is admiration to the point of wonder and delight."
    — A.W. Tozer

  • 02. How to Save Your Life (2011) - Dallas Willard
    Sep 2 2024

    How to Save Your Life

    September 12, 2011

    When you think about the phrase “being saved,” most people think about saving their soul. But what about the rest of you? Dallas explains that salvation is for every aspect of our lives and helps us understand how to redeem our time and bring everything we do back into the kingdom of God.

    Definitions:

    · “Spiritual formation” is the process of shaping the individual so that they love God with all their heart, with all their soul, with all their mind, and with all their strength, and they love their neighbor as themselves.

    · “Salvation” is being caught up in the life that Jesus is now living on earth.

    · “Redemption” is to buy something back.

    · “Beauty” is goodness made present to the senses.

    · “Truth” is a reflection of reality, including beauty and goodness.

    · “Goodness” is all that nourishes and strengthens human life in a proper order.

  • 01. Taking on the Mind of Christ (2003) - Dallas Willard
    Aug 26 2024

    Following Christ: Taking on the Mind of Christ

    January 1, 2003

    "The Following Christ conference was an annual event hosted by InterVarsity Christian Fellowship. Dallas had the honor of speaking at the closing session of the conference that took place in Atlanta, GA, December 28, 2002 - January 1, 2003. He painted a beautiful picture of what it means to follow Christ, urging believers to embrace the mind of Christ as outlined in Philippians 2.

    Philippians 2:1-8
    Therefore if there is any encouragement in Christ, if any consolation of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and compassion, make my joy complete by being of the same mind, maintaining the same love, united in spirit, intent on one purpose. Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility consider one another as more important than yourselves; do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others. Have this attitude in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus, who, as He already existed in the form of God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, but emptied Himself by taking the form of a bond-servant and being born in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death: death on a cross.
