John Ortberg - Who are the Experts on Life Transformation?

This is Session 2 of the 2013 Knowing Christ conference that became the foundation for the book "Living in Christ's Presence." Download John's outline: dwillard.s3.am...
Emotions run high as John Ortberg opens this session with some stories about Dallas Willard. (Everyone there was sensing the preciousness of this time together because of Dallas's fragile health in the 8th month of his battle with pancreatic cancer.) John then reminds us that this gathering is not about Dallas, but it's about the wonder that there is a God who is as good as Jesus said he was.
Ortberg emphasizes the importance of life transformation through the practices and teachings of Jesus, advocating for a shift from performance-driven faith to authentic spiritual formation. He underscores that true transformation is possible by aligning one's life with the practices of Jesus.

I've listened to your interviews with Dr. Willard. I have noticed he always had a reasonable response to every question you asked. I used to think he knew which questions were coming. I now think because he took Jesus into every thought and action of his life, he came, over time, to be able to answer the questions we all as asking and relevant to living. While age is a hot topic, it takes a while of living as an apprentice of Jesus to be able to work Jesus' words into every "nook and cranny". Thank you for this video, John. I feel it is one of the best presentations of life transformation you've ever given.

Wow! John Ortberg is just as good as Dallas Willard! (I guess he should be, he’s Dallas’s friend and student!)
