I have been deeply impacted by the writings of Dr. Dallas Willard. Thus far, in the 21st century, I believe him to be the greatest writer and thinker on the topic of “what it means to be a Disciple of Jesus”!
In his book, THE GREAT OMMISION, Dr. Willard writes, “Jesus brings us reliable information about who we are, why we are here, and what the humanly appropriate motives are for doing whatever we do. First, He informs us that we are by nature unceasing spiritual beings with an eternal destiny in God’s great universe. We will never stop existing, and there is nothing we can do about it.” Dr. Willard so aptly explains that every person who is, or has ever lived, is an everlasting soul!
GOD’s Word declares the bad news that every soul has been ruined by sin; but that is not the end of the story. Additionally GOD’s Word proclaims the Good News that for those who trust JESUS as LORD, that HE is their Shepherd and HE Restores Souls!
Consider this your special invitation to engage in this message, as we explore how we can have a Soul Restoring Encounter with GOD.
