Eat this book - Eugene H. Peterson

Continuing Peterson's major evaluation of contemporary Christian spirituality, EAT THIS BOOK focuses on spiritual reading.

Taking its title from the angel's instruction to John in the Book of Revelation: 'Take it and eat it; it will be bitter in your stomach, but sweet as honey in your mouth.', EAT THIS BOOK discusses the challenges and benefits of how we engage with Scripture today.

As with other books in the series, EAT THIS BOOK is written for both academic and serious lay audiences. Challenging but rewarding, it combines first-rate scholarship with illustrations drawn from raw human experience.
