Description

From the translator of The Message, thirty-one ruminations drawn from the gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.

Eugene Peterson was quite concerned about the language we use between Sundays. He strived for a continuity of language between the words we use in Bible studies and the words we use when we are out hiking, at work, or eating dinner with family. He illustrated this passion in his writings and weekly sermons. A Month of Sundays is a devotional collection featuring excerpts of Eugene's Sunday sermons arranged into thoughtful readings for every day of the month, drawn from the books of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.

The four gospels give us snapshots of the earthly life and ministry of Jesus. Dig deep into Eugene Peterson's thoughts regarding select passages, and discover clarity, insight, and wisdom in his distinctive style of earthy spirituality.

What a lovely collection of sermons from the gospels by Eugene Peterson. The presentation becomes a short devotional book. Peterson challenges readers to avoid common Christian terms and use words closer to the original text and easier to understand for both those within the church and those without that foundation. He writes with a beautiful command of the language and insight for practical application. This is a genuinely inspiring, thought-provoking book for further reflection. The only negative is that you will want to read more from the author.

I received a copy of the book without obligation. This review is my opinion.

I read A MONTH OF SUNDAYS by EUGENE H. PATERSON straight through instead of treating it as a daily reading book. It is easy to read and understand and full of godly wisdom taken from the gospels. It is a practical message, showing us how to live our lives as Jesus did, in Spirit and in truth. I am sure that I will reread it slowly. I really enjoyed the book and can highly recommend it.
I was given a free copy of the book by NetGalley from Waterbrook & Multnomah. The opinions in this review are completely my own.

I enjoyed this book! Although it’s Meant to be read as a 31 day devotional, I opted to read straight through for review purposes. I will read it again daily. What a collection of thought provoking sermons! I’ve enjoyed Peterson’s works for a while. Definitely a good addition to your collection.

I received an advanced copy of this book.
