‘Everyone who met Dallas Willard was impressed by his personal attention, calm confidence, wisdom, and profound sense of the spiritual. But he was not always the man who seemed to live on a different plane of reality than the rest of us’.
Brent talks with Gary Moon about the new paperback edition of his IVP biography ‘Becoming Dallas Willard: The Formation of a Philosopher, Teacher, and Christ Follower’.
Gary is director of the Martin Family Institute and Dallas Willard Center for Christian Spiritual Formation at Westmont College in Santa Barbara, California. He is also co-director of Fuller’s doctor of ministry degree program in spiritual direction wich blends ancient Christian spirituality, Ignation spirituality and spiritual formation insights from Dallas Willard.
