I'm glad you liked it. Dallas Willard is a GREAT author. He "gets it." There's no such thing as discipleship without effort or easy believism. If we want to live with the Master in heaven, we need to learn to live like the Master on earth. It's hard putting off the natural man, and strive to be more Christlike in thoughts, words and deeds, but that's what He expects of us. And luckily His grace is available to help us.
It's too bad that articles like this get almost zero response on FR. People are more interested in inter-denominational arguing.
It's an arguing sort of site :-). But often people read something and don't feel the need to respond.
