Well worth the Investment

I think it's hard to review a book of this nature for a few reasons. For one it's very practical in the sense of it giving you lots to go away and do but also think about. In saying that shouldn't I come back after I've tried the things it suggests?

I any case I found this book a joy to read and in my view, we'll worth the Investment.

If you are interested to understand more about the spiritual walk of a Christian then this is highly recommended!

The Christian Life in the 2020s.

This is such a big yet great book. At one stage I got bogged down, but now in a week or so have listened to the last 15 hours. Well worth a listen and lots of help and suggestions on discipleship and how to live the Christian life.

One of the most important books I've ever read

I'm probably going to have to listen to this again and take notes... This is packed with wisdom and offers a considered and well thought out reason for practiced Christianity that touches the soul.

Divine conspiracy.

I love this book & will recommend it for everyone especially pastors or teachers of the word in order to help believers come to the understanding of their right standing with God & the authority they have in Christ. Knowing that Christ is the logos who maintain & manipulate the ultimate laws of the physical universe.

Like deep waters

Dallas Willard takes his time to explain the things we have made complicated in simple terms and to gently show how over time the church has moved away from what Jesus taught us to do, and then gives guidance on how to be a disciple.

Seminal

Here is a work of comprehensive scope and universal application. A modern classic of Christian discipleship. I find it difficult to overstate the benefits of reflection upon its rich narration of the kingdom of God in the life of the individual disciple, the local church and the affairs of humankind.
Divine Conspiracy has the potential to be applied as a Rule of Life, that is a way for a Christian to engage actively in formation in the everyday course of living a worthwhile life.

Everyone should read it.

Essential reading for Christian and non Christian. I've listened to it and read it, but feel I need to and want to do so again and again. There's a lot to digest.

This book will break you... if you allow it

This is an excellent book for Spiritual Formation and will cause it's readers a great deal of introspection, reflection, reality checking and communion with God in confession and repentance. It give a clarion call to being true discipleship which is itself true Christianity. I love the way Dallas Willard uses no nonsense langue to get his points across calling us the apprentices of Jesus.

There were points when reading this when I just had to stop and pray.

The thrust of the book, that we live in a Trinitarian, supernatural universe and that truth of reality is far greater than the presuppositions of naturalism and materialism holding that God is real and the spiritual and physical world are just as real as each other is a much needed message today.

The conclusion to the book which looks to the end of God's divine conspiracy or plan, which includes a redeemed humanity and the universe he created is full of hope and refreshes the eyes of the soul

A worthy... difficult in places, but worthwhile read... the kind of book that I'm sure to read again.
