Renovated

God, Dallas Willard, and the Church That Transforms

De: Jim Wilder

Narrado por: Tom Parks

Christianity has tended to focus on right beliefs and right choices as the keys for personal growth. But biblical evidence and modern brain science show that our character is shaped more by whom we love than what we believe.

Through conversations he had with Dallas Willard at the Heart and Soul Conference shortly before Dallas' death, Jim Wilder shows how we can train our brains to relate to God based on joyful, mutual attachment - which leads to emotional and spiritual maturity as our identity and character are formed by our relationship with God.

Must read for the church

Why don’t more people know about this book and Dallas Willard? This book was incredible!

So good!

This book provides a such a helpful way of thinking about spiritual formation. I appreciated how Wilder expands on the teachings of Dallas Willard. Loved it!

Formation must read

This is a read and re-read book.
It’s becoming clear that the more I pursue wholeness and Christlikeness the more I realize how deep the brokenness must reach. I love the journey Dallas’ work invites me to, and Wilder brings a special perspective as he revisits this study of hesed and attachment. The forming continues.

Life-changing content memorably presented

Full of memorable stories that illustrate the accessible principles vital to human thriving. Well-narrated alternating content from Dallas Willard & author Jim Wilder presents emerging understanding of how relational joy attachment builds (& is built by) healthy interaction with God & other people. Essential reading for any leader & every church! (I personally know at least one of those giving testimony to its effect on those serving God through these principles.)

Attachment theory made practical for discipleship

I read this book for a masters in counseling class. What stood out to me the most was that the spiritual disciples are most effective w combined w relational skills. The ultimate attachment is attachment w God.
