Video of the Week: Dallas Willard

Excellent thoughts from a leader in the world of spiritual transformation



I found this week's video on the LiveStream account of Monvee.com, which you can access here. If you're not familiar with Monvee, I have a feeling you will be soon. It has been branding itself as "the future of spiritual formation," which would be kind of a laughable claim if it didn't have people like John Ortberg and Dallas Willard in its corner. Those names make me want to learn more, and I am in the process of doing so. (And I will pass on what I learn to you, as well.)

Now for the video. This is an interview with Dallas Willard on several topics intersecting with spiritual transformation, and it is outstanding stuff. Outstanding. My favorite part comes about 7 or 8 minutes in, when Willard talks about grace and effort. "Grace is not opposed to effort," he says. "It's opposed to earning."

Here's the rest.
