Jesus is not a remote savior, waiting to welcome us into heaven after we die, Willard argued. He is a dynamic living force, a leader and teacher to whom we apprentice ourselves to learn the sacred skills God wants us to embrace, and to fulfill His son's vision when Christ declared that the "kingdom of God has come."<P>In The Divine Conspiracy Continued, co-written with theologian Gary Black, Willard lays out the next stage in God's plan as this generation of disciples, including ordained and lay leaders, step into positions of authority across our culture and begin to transform the world from the inside out. To fulfill the Christian calling is not to remove oneself from the outside world and take shelter from its shortcomings, Willard reminds us, but to step into the world to lead and serve as agents of change.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Dallas Willard, the author of the bestselling spiritual classic, <em>The Divine Conspiracy</em>, now fulfills his revolutionary vision of how the kingdom of God is made real on earth in this sequel, the last book he was working on before his recent death.</p><p>In <em>The Divine Conspiracy</em>, revered Christian philosopher and scholar Dallas Willard critiqued the church's obsession with sin management and revolutionized our understanding of true Christian discipleship.

Jesus is not a remote savior, waiting for us in heaven after we die, Willard taught, but a leader and teacher to whom we apprentice ourselves to fulfill what Jesus had in mind when he declared that the "kingdom of God has come." In <em>The Divine Conspiracy Continued</em>, Willard and theologian Gary Black Jr. lay out the next stage in God's plan as this generation's disciples enter into positions of leadership and transform the world from the inside out. Christians are not called to protect themselves from the world but to step into the world to lead and serve, and in doing so, bring the kingdom of God to earth.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"For every follower of Christ who seeks to be a light in and through every vocational and professional arena of contemporary life.
