About This Book
A Conversation in the Art of Spiritual Reading
Eugene Peterson is convinced that the way we read the Bible is as
important as that we read it. Do we read the Bible for information about
God and salvation, for principles and "truths" that we can use to live
better? Or do we read it in order to listen to God and respond in prayer
and obedience? The second part of Peterson’s momentous five-volume work
on spiritual theology, Eat This Book challenges us to read the
Scriptures on their own terms, as God’s revelation, and to live them as
we read them. With warmth and wisdom Peterson offers greatly needed,
down-to-earth counsel on spiritual reading. In these pages he draws
readers into a fascinating conversation on the nature of language, the
ancient practice of lectio divina, and the role of Scripture
translations; included here is the "inside story" behind Peterson’s own
popular Bible translation, The Message. Countering the widespread
practice of using the Bible for self-serving purposes, Peterson here
serves readers with a nourishing entree into the formative,
life-changing art of spiritual reading.
