About this audiobook
From Dallas Willard, one of the most important Christian intellectuals of the twentieth century, comes a collection of readings, interviews, talks, and articles—many previously unpublished.
In his groundbreaking books The Divine Conspiracy, The Great Omission, Knowing Christ Today, Hearing God, The Spirit of the Disciplines, The Divine Conspiracy Continued, and The Allure of Gentleness, teacher, philosopher, and spiritual guide Dallas Willard forever changed the way many Christians experience their faith. Three years after his death, the influence of this provocative Christian thinker—“a man devoted to reestablishing the exalted place moral reasoning once held in the academy” (Christianity Today) remains strong.
Compiled, edited, and introduced by his friend and fellow theologian, Gary Black, Jr., Renewing the Christian Mind is a collection of essays, interviews, and articles that brilliantly encapsulate Willard’s spiritual philosophy and his contributions to theology.
Renewing the Christian Mind offers insight into spiritual formation, avocation, and theology, and includes sections directed at specific audiences, from church leaders to laypeople looking for spiritual counsel and nurture. Reasoned, honest, thought- provoking, and illuminating, this important anthology is an invaluable introduction and companion to Dallas Willard’s acclaimed body of work.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Wow. What a great fire hydrant of Godly insight and wisdom to listen to. Thankful for Dallas’ work!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5So relevant for Christians today.
Refreshing to go beyond the mundane into Life with The Christ. - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5To have one place where it was possible to listen to a collection of Dallas’ teachings was extremely useful in getting a handle on the core issues he was trying to convey throughout his life.
Although the content of each is extremely dense and I probably couldn’t understand half of it, it was personally helpful to keep listening because Dallas usually repeated the important issues multiple times in different settings.
