%X This article seeks to provide some clarity on the role of human will in Christian formation through engaging Dallas WillardĄŻs understanding of the human will/heart/spirit. The first part of the article examines the value of coming to have an accurate understanding of the role and formation of the will. Section two investigates the Gospel writersĄŻ portrayal of JesusĄŻ will in his incarnate life on earth. And the third section draws off WillardĄŻs views in order to further develop our understanding of the role of the human will in spiritual formation as well as the formation of the will itself
