- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Fantastic! I was surprised be how engaging this was. I have read other books by Peterson but this really drew me in.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I am a Eugene Peterson fan. This is an amazing work that strips off all human veneer and leaves only Christ. It is wonderful!!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Such a wonderful book. The final third is worth the price alone.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Bright and breezy. Many rich insights.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Peterson's insight into living the theology we claim to hold to is wonderful, and Peterson is probably the best writer of any theologian that I have read. As poetic as he writes, his theology always remains grounded in the everyday, the practical, and this is the very purpose of the book - a theology that is lived, that changes us by its' power, from the inside out. His writing has influenced my life than most any other in the past few years.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Peterson offers us a narrative and holistic theology that seeks to ground our thinking and living in the biblical story, finding the work and play of Christ in Creation, History, and Community. It really is a "must read."
