Great Omission

Reclaiming Jesus's Essential Teachings on Discipleship

De: Dallas Willard

Narrado por: Grover Gardner

The last command Jesus gave the church before he ascended to heaven was the Great Commission, the call for Christians to "make disciples of all the nations."

But Christians have responded by making "Christians", not "disciples". This, according to brilliant scholar and renowned Christian thinker Dallas Willard, has been the church's Great Omission.

"Dallas Willard is a brilliant, modest, immensely experienced Christian older brother, calling to us." ( Christianity Today)

Great omission

It would be a great omission if you didn’t read this book by Dallas Willard.

Transform in Christ or conform to Christianity?

One need only attend many local churches for any length of time to see why many find no use for church, or Christianity as most have experienced it. How deeply sad. I encourage all not to dismiss Christ based on the poor representation of some. He is most worthy of worship and truly amazing to know.

unfathomable depths that are worth the dive.

Motivating and encouraging on so many levels. Loved the length and depth things were explained and the constant references for further reading on deep subjects.

A Rare Read

Mortimer J. Adler, in his classic How to Read a Book, refers to those few, very rare books that are well worth reading over and over. This is without reservation one of those rare gems. And not just to read, but to use as a faithful compass. Willard gathers and synthesizes millennia of the most cogent wisdom in the practical matter of following Jesus as He intended to be followed.

For All, Our Call

This should be reading undertaken by any and all who identify as a follower of Jesus. The clarity of what Jesus expects of all who believe couldn't be made more clear. I must start within and allow Him to bring the increase.
