Spirit of the Disciplines

Robertson Dean interprets Willard's work on the spiritual disciplines necessary for Christian growth. Dean's versatile skill and vocal range give authority to the important question--"What would Jesus do?"--in any situation. Willard reminds the listener that it is insufficient to only ask the question. It's necessary to answer it, and the answer lies in how the Christian lives, specifically with regard to the practice of the spiritual disciplines, which include solitude, study, prayer, and meditation. Dean speaks with warmth and building tension to inspire the listener to heed Willard's call by adopting the "easy yoke" of these disciplines. Willard says with assurance that we can achieve self-transformation and become like Christ if we practice His ways. G.D.W. 124/117 (c) AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine
