Thank you. You can rest Dallas Willard.

May 8, 2013 by Joe Thackwell 6 Comments

I write after a good cry. Dallas Willard died this morning after announcing stage 4 cancer on Monday. You can read more here. For those who don’t know, Dallas was a longtime philosophy professor at USC. He was a great voice for Christianity and his writings will continue to influence new generations of Christians. His book Spirit of […]
