Eugene H. Peterson Quotes About Christ

• Church is the textured context in which we grow up in Christ to maturity. But church is difficult. Sooner or later, though, if we are serious about growing up in Christ, we have to deal with church. I say sooner.

• Every call to worship is a call into the Real World.... I encounter such constant and widespread lying about reality each day and meet with such skilled and systematic distortion of the truth that I'm always in danger of losing my grip on reality. The reality, of course, is that God is sovereign and Christ is savior. The reality is that prayer is my mother tongue and the eucharist my basic food. The reality is that baptism, not Myers-Briggs, defines who I am.

• El arrepentimiento es darse cuenta de que lo que Dios quiere de ti y lo que tú quieres de Dios no se va a conseguir haciendo las mismas cosas de siempre, pensando los mismos pensamientos de siempre. El arrepentimiento es una decisión de seguir a Jesucristo y convertirse en su peregrino en el camino de la paz. El arrepentimiento es la más práctica de todas las palabras y el más práctico de todos los actos. Es una palabra con los pies en el suelo. Pone a la persona en contacto con la realidad que Dios crea.

• One of the reasons that Christians read Scripture repeatedly and carefully is to find out just how God works in Jesus Christ so that we can work in the name of Jesus Christ.
