The Divine Conspiracy: Rediscovering Our Hidden Life in God - Softcover
First published in 1998, The Divine Conspiracy captured the attention of Christians across the world, by offering a timely and challenging call back to the true meaning of Christian discipleship.
Gracefully weaving biblical teaching, popular culture, science and scholarship together, Dallas Willard refuted the view that Christianity is solely about gaining admittance to heaven when we die, and taught that, as disciples, we have access now to the life of the kingdom.
Equally relevant today as it was on publication, The Divine Conspiracy challenges us to step aside from the pieties of contemporary Christian practice and offers instead a practical plan by which we can become Christ-like. Truly, it has earned its reputation as a modern Christian classic.

Review:
Dallas Willard, an acclaimed theologian and professor of philosophy at the University of Southern California, fulfils the longing of many Christians who want to live as true disciples of Christ rather than distant dabblers. Likewise, he scoffs at consumer Christians who are simply banking on admittance to heaven as their payoff for attending church. Or worse still, those who use Christianity to advance their political agendas rather than their spiritual ones. But this is not a scolding book. Rather, Willard devotes his efforts to discussing specific and inspiring ways to develop a discipleship to Jesus--not as an act of sacrifice or even one of spiritual luxury--instead, as everyday people committed to the teachings of Christ. "The really good news for Christians is that Jesus is now taking students in the master class of life", writes Willard. "So the message of and about him is specifically a gospel for our life now, not just for dying. It is about living now as his apprentices in kingdom living, not just as consumers of his merits." --Gail Hudson
Review:
I am struck by the comprehensive nature of this book... It provides me with a conceptual philosophy for understanding the meaning and purpose of human existence...

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. To celebrate the twentieth anniversary of the book that changed how we understand the Christian life, Dallas Willards classic work, is now available in paperbackThe Divine Conspiracy is a timely and challenging call back to the true meaning of Christian discipleship. Dallas Willard gracefully weaves biblical teaching, popular culture, science, scholarship, and spiritual practice into a tour de force that shows the necessity of profound changes in how we view our lives and faith.In an era when many Christians consider Jesus a beloved but remote savior, Willard argues compellingly for the relevance of God to every aspect of our existence. Masterfully capturing the central insights of Christs teachings in a fresh way for modern seekers, The Divine Conspiracy helps us discover a revolutionary way to experience Godby knowing him as a daily mentor who actively guides and teaches his apprentices.Willard explores the true nature of the teachings of Jesus, who intended that his followers become his disciples, and taught that we have access now to the life we are only too eager to relegate to the hereafter. Calling us into a more authentic faith, Willard offers a practical plan by which we can daily interact with God in order to continue the work of becoming more like his Son. Willard challenges us to step aside from the politics and pieties of contemporary Christian practice and inspires us to reject the all too common lukewarm faith of our times by embracing the true meaning of Christian discipleship. A renowned teacher and Christian thinker offers a timely and challenging callback to the true meaning of Christian discipleship.
