The Jesus Way (#03 in Spiritual Theology Series)

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.Read less
