Description
'I've never read a book by Eugene Peterson that didn't stir and challenge me.' (Max Lucado,
author of In the Grip of Grace)'I thank God for A Long Obedience. It is a pioneer message, first
coming to us at a time when no one was talking about either 'long' or 'obedience.' And while,
thankfully, others have added their voices in the intervening years, A Long Obedience
retains its prophetic edge for us who live on the cusp of the twenty-first century. Rooted in the
ancient psalmist's Songs of Ascents it invites us to journey with Jesus into the rich spiritual
landscape of 'righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.'' (Richard J. Foster, author of
Celebration of Discipline and Streams of Living Water)'There is a clean, bright rigor to honest life
before God. Burnishing the language of the Psalms, Eugene Peterson makes that life sing like a
taut wire. A long obedience is the only path of discipleship to Jesus, and this is a message we
desperately need to hear and implement today.' (Dallas Willard, author of The Divine
Conspiracy)'Into a world that does its best to deceive us into believing that everything changes,
God speaks his unchanging Word. Ours is a time and a world that needs to hear in fresh ways all
that that Word might mean if we would only listen. Eugene has listened. In this book he tells us all
that he has heard about those fixed facets of that unchanging Word.' (Michael Card, recording
artist)'All of the marks of a classic―profound, timeless, life-impacting.' (Leith Anderson, author of
Leadership That Works)'Words are weapons for good or ill, and Eugene H. Peterson uses them to
wield the sword of Scripture to pierce our minds and hearts. He is one of God's most gifted
wordsmiths, and we are privileged to have his work among us. . . . I have constantly used his
writings and concepts in my ministry; putting them to use in drama, teaching, and books, and they
have hugely enhanced my own gifting. Not least, those words have had a sweet influence in my
own 'obedience in the same direction'! I am honored to endorse this Christian classic.' (Jill P.
Briscoe, author of Running on Empty)'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)'Every day contemporary culture invites me to rush about in a hundred different
directions that tear at my soul. I have found Eugene Peterson to have no patience for such crazed
busyness. Instead he shows me how to stay focused on the long, biblical direction home to God.'

(Craig Barnes, author of When God Interrupts)'A Long Obedience in the Same Direction
