Dallas Willard Bücher

Der renommierte Meister und Schriftsteller Dallas Willard, einer der brillantesten zeitgenössischen christlichen Intellektuellen, bietet in diesem Werk einen aufmerksamen und herausfordernden Aufruf, zum wahren Sinn des christlichen Lebens zurückzukehren. Willard verwebt mit großer Fähigkeit biblische Lehren, populäre Kultur, Wissenschaft, Bildung und spirituelle Praxis in einer Reise, die die Notwendigkeit tiefgreifender Veränderungen in unserer Sicht auf unser Leben und unseren Glauben offenbart. In einer Ära, in der viele Christen Jesus als geliebten, aber fernen Retter betrachten, betont Willard stark die Relevanz Gottes in jedem Aspekt unserer Existenz. Er fängt die zentralen Ideen der Lehren Christi auf frische Weise ein und hilft uns, einen revolutionären Weg zu erkunden, um den Herrn zu erfahren: ihn als einen wesentlichen Teil des Hier und Jetzt zu kennen, anstatt nur als etwas, das zur ewigen Lebenszeit gehört. Der Autor ruft uns zu einem authentischeren Glauben auf und bietet einen praktischen Plan, um mehr wie Christus zu sein. Er fordert uns heraus, die politischen und postmodernen Annahmen des Christentums beiseite zu legen, und inspiriert uns, den lauwarmen Glauben unserer Zeit abzulehnen, indem wir den wahren Sinn des Evangeliums umarmen.

Jesus nachfolgen bedeutet, sein Leben zu ändern. In unseren Gemeinden wird darüber geredet, aber zu spüren ist davon oft wenig. D. Willard lädt ein zu einem konkreten Veränderungsprozess, durch den Christus in uns Gestalt gewinnt.

A renowned teacher and writer, Dallas Willard, offers a timely and challenging call back to the true meaning of Christian discipleship. He weaves biblical teaching, popular culture, science, scholarship, and spiritual practice into a compelling narrative that emphasizes the need for profound changes in how we view our lives and faith. In an era when many Christians see Jesus as a distant savior, Willard argues for the relevance of God in every aspect of existence. He presents Christ's teachings in a fresh way, inviting seekers to experience God as an integral part of the present, rather than just the afterlife. Willard observes that many contemporary Christians lack a compelling sense of the importance of understanding and conforming to Christ's teachings, often viewing obedience as impossible. He critiques the prevalent notion that Christianity's primary function is merely to secure admission to heaven, labeling this as "consumer Christianity" and "bumper-sticker faith." By refuting the "fire escape" mentality, he explores the true nature of Jesus' teachings, which call for His followers to embrace discipleship and access the abundant life available now. Willard challenges readers to move beyond the politics and pieties of modern Christian practice, inspiring a rejection of lukewarm faith in favor of a more authentic and transformative discipleship.

A "paradox" concerning divine guidance -- Guidelines to guidance -- Never alone -- Our communicating cosmos -- The still small voice and its rivals -- The Word of God and the rule of God -- Redemption through the Word of God -- Knowing the voice of God -- Guidance and beyond : a life more than guidance.

"God spoke to me." "The Spirit spoke to my heart." "God revealed the idea to me." Being close to God means communicating with him--telling him what is on our hearts in prayer and hearing and understanding what he is saying to us. It is this second half of our conversation with God that is so important but that can also be so difficult. How do we hear his voice? How can we be sure that what we think we hear is not our own subconscious? What role does the Bible play? What if what God says to us is not clear? The key, says best-selling author Dallas Willard, is to focus not so much on individual actions and decisions as on building our personal relationship with our Creator. In this updated classic, originally published as In Search of Guidance, the author provides rich spiritual insight into how we can hear God's voice clearly and develop an intimate partnership with him in the work of his kingdom.

The book offers daily devotionals designed to deepen one's connection with God by teaching readers how to discern His voice. Through daily Scripture readings, it provides practical suggestions for prayer, journaling, and reflection, guiding readers to express their thoughts and understand divine communication. Dallas Willard emphasizes the importance of both speaking to God and listening for His guidance, making it a valuable resource for spiritual growth.
