Dallas Willard thoughts…
September 24, 2008 · 2 Comments
On Monday, I met Dallas again at his office at USC. I walked away blessed and challenged.
I read this quote today from Dallas & it reminded me of the substance of our conversation:
“Does the Gospel I preach and teach have a natural tendency to cause people who hear it to become full-time students of Jesus? Would those who believe it become his apprentices as a natural ‘next step’? What can we reasonably expect would result, from people actually believing the substance of my message?”

“If you want to build a ship, don’t drum up the men to gather wood, divide the work and give orders. Instead, teach them to yearn for the vast and endless sea.”

A friend of mine (Chad) – sent this to me, but I thought it was a joke – it is so painful to watch.
Apparently, it is for real — wow.
*UPDATE:
…just found this next one also — it is just as painful and funny to watch…

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
where there is sadness, joy.
o divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console;
to be understood as to understand;
to be loved as to love;
for it is in giving that we receive;
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
it is in dying that we are born again to eternal life.
–St. Francis of Assisi
