Dallas Notes: Personal Accounts (2008, 2011)

Dallas Willard Tells His Story (Bethel Seminary San Diego, October 9, 2008)

'I loved flannelgraph.'
'I cheated on an exam.'
backed way into spiritual disciplines
spent time praying for evangelism alone in ss class room
came to realize that solitude and silence can be a big help, as well as the praying
'there are some things you can do that really help'


Dallas' Personal Daily Practices (Tree of Life Community, August 16, 2011)

work through Lord's Prayer and Psalm 23
getting up: 'The Lord is here.'
how does Quiet Time last throughout day?
renew throughout day
have days that are more intensive: fasting, memorization,
how do you feel when you don't do your disciplines?
disciplines are like medicine. ideally we wouldn't need them. they are not righteousness, but they are wisdom.
what needs to happen daily, weekly, monthly, yearly?
regular half-day fasts, day fasts every few months, three-day fast once a year or so
