    The insights recorded from the 1980’s to the 2010’s are all pointed right to and imbued with the real presence of Jesus. Helpful observations about God’s nature and human nature with practical advice on how humans can grow to become more like Jesus over time.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

103. Plain People Lifted into God’s March Through Human History (2005)
Q: Why don't we have the original manuscripts of the Bible?
Willard suggests that God intended the Bible to reach people in its existing form, partly because original manuscripts could become objects of worship; he emphasizes seeking God rather than expecting perfect conditions.
103. Plain People Lifted into God’s March Through Human History (2005)
Q: Why is it necessary for God to leave human beings on their own?
Willard says distance allows people to choose freely and develop trustworthy character, rather than becoming obedient only because God overrides their will.
102. A New Testament Theology of the Church – The Foundation for the Spiritual Formation Community (2005)
Q: Is the unity of the body best built in common mission, or is it to lead with common prayer and worship?
Willard says unity grows as Christians serve, love and pray for one another. He argues that mission should flow from a shared life of love in Christ, rather than being placed ahead of that life.
102. A New Testament Theology of the Church – The Foundation for the Spiritual Formation Community (2005)
Q: Can you help me understand the difference in simple everyday terms between legalism and discipleship?
Willard says spiritual formation is not behavior control or judging people by their actions. It is the reshaping of the inner life, including thoughts and feelings, so that people love God and become the kind of people who naturally live as Jesus taught.
101. Holiness, Divine Presence and Divine Power: Reflections on John 14 (2010)
Q: How can the church encourage people to pursue holiness and love?
Willard recommends asking thoughtful questions that help people consider human needs, life after death, and what they believe heaven would be like. He also emphasizes Christians embodying love, teaching, depending on the Holy Spirit, and staying open and honest with others.
