Pursue Deeper Faithfulness with Eugene Peterson's Classic Work on Discipleship
Since Eugene Peterson first wrote this spiritual formation classic more than forty years ago, hundreds of thousands of Christians have been inspired by its call to deeper discipleship.
As a society, we are still obsessed with the immediate, but Peterson's time-tested prescription for discipleship remains the same―a long obedience in the same direction.
Long obedience requires a deepening life of prayer. Peterson finds encouragement for today's pilgrims in the Songs of Ascents (Psalms 120–134), sung by travelers on their way to worship in Jerusalem. With prophetic and pastoral wisdom, Peterson shows how the psalms teach us to grow in worship, service, joy, work, happiness, humility, community, blessing, and more.
This commemorative edition features:
a preface from Leif Peterson's eulogy at his father's memorial service, a bibliography of Eugene Peterson's works, and the option to pair with the companion Bible study guide, A Long Obedience in the Same Direction Bible Study , for a deeper experience.
"Eugene Peterson's special gift is to stand beside us and keep our feet on the ground as he lifts our hearts to God and our minds to godliness. A Long Obedience in the Same Direction , which does this stunningly well, is also the best pathway into the Psalter you are likely to find. If, like me for twenty years, you find it hard to get into the Psalms, that is another reason to read, mark, learn, and inwardly digest this brilliant book." – J. I. Packer, author of Knowing God
