No man has all the truth. Truth is infinite and we are finite. Jesus said I am the way , the truth and the life. Dallas had a ton of truth. Now he has it all as he is with the Lord.

This is maybe my 10th time through this. It becomes more real, I’m finding it to be more true and instructive every time. It’s taken me 13 years now to get there.

This is quite encouraging to hear! I am a newbie as I'm only a little over a year into this journey with Dallas as my teacher, but wow, the knowledge and growth that has occurred within me in that short time is incredible! I think we may be in the Dallas is my homeboy FB Group together 😊 Blessings to you as you continue on your journey!!

Very interesting.. I'm just wondering how ppl from really broken down backgrounds, where there was very minimal help as a child.. how can they form a relationship through the problems with there minds.. Especially if they haven't had any christian background or support around.. Alot of the problem is in your mind and how much evil,abuse, you have been around in one's life..

For me it was through a Christian mentor, Counciling. 5 to 6 years I'm a new man. Dallas was a big part, Dr Dan Allender, CS Lewis, and close friends. Oh, the working and Grace of the Holy Spirit.:-)

This is such an important question. Dallas' wife, Jane, spent many years as a therapist caring for those who have had severe damage in their childhood, so Dallas was aware of the extreme challenges some folks face and he was very realistic about them. All hearts may not be healed to the same level, but a good and loving God has invited us into the healing process through the life of Jesus Christ. We can all make progress toward wholeness, we can all experience new life, we can experience substantial healing, we can all be hopeful. Finally, we should not limit God's ability to transform our lives. One of the great lies of our enemy is that God can heal others, but my life is just too screwed up! Bill Dwyer, DWM

@@dallaswillard Thanks Bill, Yeah its tough.. I'm almost 12 months again born.. Its was unbelievable when I received the holy spirit for the first time.. Never experienced any form of supernatural in my life I was on cloud 9.. For a few days.. Experiencing supernatural good and bad turning me upside down.. Before I had found the lord.. I was struggling from all kinds depression ,mental anguish mainly from not really having much of childhood all kinds of abuse etc.. Obviously once I had my own family it was hard.. Heavy mediated and on sleeping pills etc.. All kinds of addictives which have cleared.. I was a new man and spirit.. I burst out of gates telling everyone not a worry in the world but unfortunately overtime though attacks and unresolved truma from my past creeped back in.. And slowly falling back in the physical world.. Struggling with ocd intrusive thoughts obsoletely tearing me apart in my head.. Seeking of kinds of help.. Trying everything... Anyway I found dallas willard great for me 👍 Bless the lord..🙏

No problem for St Paul to use Spirit as CPU or Executive and other two as Hardware & SW?! Mind you see it all on a screen if not then St Paul had none...
