"Eugene Peterson is a man on whom God's wonder is not lost. Thanks to his pen, not even a day passes that I don't read and sigh, I never thought of it that way."
Max Lucado, teaching minister of Oak Hills Church
"Make it real. Make it possible. That was Eugene's way, in everything he did. Here, he guides us into the most important power of Christian experience-finding the resurrection life of Jesus available to each of us, every day. You will love this."
John Eldredge, author of Wild at Heart
"Eugene Peterson's Living the Resurrection is a great gift-inspiring a major shift from understanding the Resurrection as an event to experiencing it as a practice we can engage in every day. And the result of practicing resurrection is no less than our transformation into the image of Christ! My heart soared in reading this work that connects dots that so desperately need to be connected; I am confident yours will as well!"
