Practise Resurrection Summary

Practise Resurrection: A conversation on growing up in Christ by Eugene Peterson

Book five of Eugene Peterson's landmark SPIRITUAL THEOLOGY series: foundational reading for the twenty-first-century church. Continuing Peterson's evaluation of contemporary Christian spirituality, PRACTISE RESURRECTION is a study of the book of Ephesians. It is often thought to be Paul's most difficult letter, but has been for over thirty years Peterson's text for his identity as a pastor. Peterson points out that although Christians emphasise the importance of new birth, growth is equally important. This book is a conversation on spiritual formation and what it means to become a mature Christian. As with the first four books in this series, PRACTISE RESURRECTION is written for both lay and academic audiences. Challenging but deeply rewarding, it combines scholarship with the human experience and lightness of touch for which Peterson is known.

Practise Resurrection Reviews

'A tour de force in spiritual theology, combining incisive cultural analysis and biblical exposition with a sweeping and engaging vision of the Christian life' (for CHRIST PLAYS IN TEN THOUSAND PLACES) -- Christianity Today 'Deep, stirring, luminous, even profound - if you are going to read one book about reading Scripture, it should be this one.' (for EAT THIS BOOK) -- Lauren Winner 'From his profound scholarship and spiritual wisdom, Eugene Peterson helps us see the stark simplicity and necessity of adopting the way in which Jesus is - not just selecting a few words or deeds from him and calling ourselves Christians, but finding an inner oneness with him in kingdom living that pushes away all the bright ideas and traditional wisdoms about how we can get things done for Jesus without being like him. For the contemporary Western church, the only hope now is awestruck repentance before God and the watching world. This book can help us get there and find there the true solution to every problem we face as those called by the Name. Soak yourself in THE JESUS WAY.' (for THE JESUS WAY) -- Dallas Willard
