discipleship in an instant society
Book • 1980
In 'A Long Obedience in the Same Direction', Eugene H. Peterson explores the Psalms of Ascent (Psalms 120-134) to provide a framework for Christian discipleship.

Peterson argues that true spiritual growth and maturity come from a long-term commitment to following God's path.
