A Classic Everyone Should Read
Wednesday, April 9th, 2008This interview with Eugene Peterson is one of those classic gems that everyone should read at least once. I can’t believe that Christianity Today would print it, because it condemns about 75% of everything that they promote.
Pastor Peterson is one of my heroes in the faith, and his work has had a huge impact on me. He comes from Montana, very close (by Montana standards) to where I grew up. His writing has changed my whole paradigm, and my view of the role and function of the Pastoral office. It has rejuvenated and refreshed the ministries of hundreds if not thousands of Pastors.
In this interview he challenges our cultures idea of what is ’spiritual’ and calls BS on the whole idea of ‘relevance’. Man, I love it! Take a few minutes and treat yourself by reading it. We are also going to post it in our ‘Freebies’ section for your convenience.
