Description
A unique daily devotional from beloved professor, pastor, and bestselling author of The Message Eugene Peterson that combines Scripture with reflections and insights.
Eugene Peterson’s classic translation of the Bible, The Message, has brought God’s words to life for millions of readers by seamlessly recreating the immediacy of Scripture in contemporary English. Now, in Living the Message, Peterson has created a devotional to help readers engage more intimately with God’s message and put His teachings into practice. Peterson’s meditations on spiritual life, the Bible, prayer, community, and faith accompany daily readings from Scripture and speak explicitly to the relevance of God’s word to the concerns and conditions of our day.
Packed with wisdom, hope, and reverence, Living the Message will empower readers to live out their faith more fully, one day at a time.
For more than 35 years, beloved author, professor, and pastor Eugene Peterson has used his expertise in the original language of the Bible and his passion for God’s word to re-create the informal, earthy immediacy of Scripture in contemporary English. Just as the writers of the New Testament used everyday language to convey God’s message to their readers and listeners, Peterson’s conversational translations and keen insight into Christian life offer timeless wisdom and speak powerfully to the concerns of today’s men and women. Living the Message is an engaging yearlong reader that features 366 selections from Peterson’s lifetime of reflection on prayer, Scripture, spirituality, and community.
Eugene H. Peterson is the author of numerous books, including A Year with Jesus, Reversed Thunder, Leap Over a Wall, and Answering God. He is also the translator of the bestselling The Message. He is professor emeritus of spiritual theology at Regent College in Vancouver, British Columbia. “Eugene Peterson’s skills at writing, at devotional reflection, at pastoring others, here grant the faithful reader a year of days of divine companionship. No voice is wiser nor so deeply convincing. Follow him, knowing that his highest skill is first to follow Christ.” - Walter Wangerin, Jr., author of Saint JulianYou may also like
