Book three of Eugene Peterson`s landmark Spiritual Theology series. Foundational reading for the Twenty-First Century Church.
Continuing Peterson`s major evaluation of contemporary Christian spirituality, The Jesus Way asks what it means to authentically follow Christ in the modern world.
As with other books in the series, The Jesus Way is written for both academic and serious lay audiences. Challenging but rewarding, it combines first-rate scholarship with illustrations drawn from raw human experience.
In this insightful analysis of authentic spirituality, Eugene Peterson contrasts the Way of the Lord - as modelled by Old Testament prophets and perfected in Jesus - with the consumerism and cult of celebrity fostered by the modern American church. A challenging and rewarding evaluation of 21st century Christian practice.
