Life Without Lack
Life Without Lack: Living in the Fullness of Psalm 23 | Dallas Willard
2 posts | 3 read | 2 to read
Learn the secret of living with contentment, peace, and security. Pause for a moment and ask yourself what your life would be like if it were completely without fear? If you did not fear death. If you did not fear life and what it might bring. If you did not fear any man, or woman, or any living creature. Would you live differently? In this unique work of never-before-published teaching, Dallas Willard revolutionizes our understanding of Psalm 23 by taking this comfortably familiar passage and revealing its extraordinary promises: “The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.... I will fear no evil.” The psalmist claims to live without any need and without any fear. How is that possible? Written with Willard’s characteristic gentle wisdom, Life Without Lack reveals the secret to enjoying God’s presence and becoming utterly caught up in his abundant generosity. The more we practice living in his presence, the more we experience the peace and freedom from worry that is promised in the psalm. Based on a series of talks by the late author and edited by his friend Larry Burtoft and by his daughter, Rebecca Willard Heatley, Life Without Lack will forever change the way you understand and apply the most well-known passage in all of Scripture.

So much to chew on from this fairly slim volume. This was a series of talks given to a church group, and while there were a couple of spots I felt like perhaps the manuscript didn't flow completely smoothly, as a whole it came together well. Read this study of Psalm 23 with a pen in hand!

LauraBeth I find John Ortberg to be a contemporary of Dallas Willard - he was mentored by him - he goes down a bit easier 😀 6y

"One of the greatest needs today is for people to REALLY see and REALLY believe the things they already profess to see and believe. Knowing about things - knowing what they are, being able to identify them and say them - does not mean we actually believe them. When we truly believe what we profess, we are set to act as if it were true. Acting as if things are true means, in turn, that we live as if they were so." #lifewithoutlack
