Dallas Willard

 To depart from righteousness is to choose a life of crushing burdens, failures, and disappointments, a life caught in the toils of endless problems that are never resolved. #DallasWillard #SpiritOfTheDisciplines

"Our lives are a result of what we have become in the depths of our being – what we call our spirit, will, or heart. From there we see our world and interpret reality."  —Dallas Willard, 'Renovation of the Heart in Daily Practice'

"Spiritual experiences do not constitute spiritual formation, though sometimes they can be a meaningful part of it." —Dallas Willard, 'Renovation of the Heart in Daily Practice'

"The revolution of Jesus is one of character, which proceeds by changing people from the inside through an ongoing personal relationship to God in Christ and to one another." —Dallas Willard, 'Renovation of the Heart in Daily Practice'
