Inter-varsity Press A Long Obedience in the Same Direction: Discipleship in an Instant Society

In the Songs of Ascent (Psalms 120-134), Peterson discovers an old Hebrew songbook used by pilgrims on their way up to Jerusalem. He seizes on these verses to teach lessons on discipleship and encouraging us to grow in joy, service, humility, and community. For 20 years Peterson's discipleship classic has been encouraging Christians to persevere. Now this revised edition, featuring the Psalms of Ascents in The Message paraphrase, can do the same for you!

The book enabled me to better understand the Psalms--not just something beautiful to read but what they mean to the ordinary Christian attempting to worship and learn to a greater degree about our Heavenly Father.

I ordered the book for a group study. We have not begun the discussion yet. But the several who have read the beginning have given it rave reviews.
