A Long Obedience in the Same Direction

Eugene H. Peterson encourages readers to continue in the ancient and valuable tradition of "praying everything they lived and living everything they prayed over the long haul." Using the Psalms the Israelites sang on the ascent to Jerusalem for festivals as a guide, he walks us through critical areas of growth and formation on the Christian pilgrimage. Topics include work, happiness, obedience, perseverance, hope, and more.
