Description of A Long Obedience in the Same Direction by Eugene H. Peterson
“A Long Obedience in the Same Direction: Discipleship in an Instant Society(The IVP Signature Collection) “is a book that delivers a message of lifetime search for God, a joyful understanding of His word and a dedicated life. Eugene H. Peterson is the author of this incredible book. Eugene wrote more than thirty books, including his widely acclaimed paraphrase of the “Bible The Message: The Bible in Contemporary Language “and bestselling spiritual formation classic “A Long Obedience in the Same Direction”. In this book, Eugene is describes the fifteen Songs of Ascent (Psalms 120-134). Many scholars trust that these psalms were sung by pilgrims as they ascended the road to Jerusalem to attend the three great festivals “Passover”, “Weeks” and “Tabernacles” or “Booths”.
The book uses these psalms as his outline, with each of the psalms describing a characteristic of Christian discipleship: repentance, providence, , service, help, worship, security, joy, work, perseverance, hope, humility, happiness, obedience, community and blessing. The psalms then become a metaphorical description of our life-long journey towards God. Ironically the title of the book is a line taken from Nietzsche, an atheist. This interesting book incorporates historical and linguistic insights without getting too theologically detailed. In the end, this book clearly demonstrates that a lifelong obedience is the only true path of discipleship to Jesus.
