What Matters to Me and Why: Realism January 15, 2003 University of Southern California  This was Dallas’s contribution to a series of lunchtime talks hosted by USC’s Office of Religious Life. The theme for the series was “What Matters to Me and Why.”  Explanations of Terms: Philosophy:  “I like to describe philosophy as the attempt to understand by rational means the necessary structure of the world in which we live.” Realism:  “Realism means that all of those things that you apprehend and perceive really do exist, are right where you experienced them, and they would be there if you didn't see them.”  For Further Study:  The Making of the Modern University: Intellectual Transformation and the Marginalization of Morality, is the book by Julie Reuben that Dallas recommended. “Naturalism’s Incapacity to Capture the Good Will” is the paper Dallas wrote about the idea that a purely physical entity would not be capable of goodwill.  The poem Dallas read is “The Truly Great,” by Stephen Spender. Visit https://DWillard.org for a wide variety of resources and opportunities that can serve as a means to help you “grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.”Dallas Willard Ministries exists to proclaim, teach and manifest the love, truth and transforming power of Christ and the Kingdom of God.

Kern Family Foundation Pastors ConferenceTheme: Character FormationJuly 6-7, 2010 In session two of this 4-part 2010 series, Dallas emphasizes the centrality of knowledge to the Christian life. The historical drive against this view of Christianity is part of a battle for authority over public life. We have allowed our beliefs to be treated as “just faith” and need to reclaim the importance of the knowledge of reality that is contained in the teachings of Scripture. This is where we find the best answers to the Four Great Questions. The answer to the fourth question (how to become a good person, leads into a discussion of the makeup of the human personality and where our actions come from).The overhead transparencies Dallas used in this session are collected in a document you can download here: https://dwillard.s3.amazonaws.com/Kern-Character-Conference-2.pdfFor Further Study:Dallas responded to Steven Gould’s book Rocks of Ages at Stanford University’s 2002 Veritas Forum in Why Science and Religion Must Conflict.Visit https://DWillard.org for a wide variety of resources and opportunities that can serve as a means to help you “grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.”Dallas Willard Ministries exists to proclaim, teach and manifest the love, truth and transforming power of Christ and the Kingdom of God.

The Calling and Resources of the Pastor - The Gospel and CharacterKern Family Foundation Pastors ConferenceTheme: Character FormationJuly 6-7, 2010Dallas defines character as acquired essence. “It is your identity as shaped by your experiences, and especially your choices, and interaction with other people.”The first session in this 4-part series will give us a good understanding of what character is and how it is affected by our beliefs about the essential questions that shape human life. Dallas points out that the Great Commission (Mt. 28:18-20) includes character formation: that’s what we’re doing when we make disciples and teach them to do everything Jesus said.The overhead transparencies Dallas used in this session are collected in a document you can download here: https://dwillard.s3.amazonaws.com/Kern-Character-Conference-1.pdfVisit https://DWillard.org for a wide variety of resources and opportunities that can serve as a means to help you “grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.”Dallas Willard Ministries exists to proclaim, teach and manifest the love, truth and transforming power of Christ and the Kingdom of God.
