Long Obedience in the Same Direction

Discipleship in an Instant Society

By: Eugene H. Peterson

Narrated by: Lloyd James

This world is no friend to grace. God has given us some resources, however. As we grow in character qualities like hope, patience, repentance and joy, we ill grow in our ability to persevere. The biblical passages in these studies offer encouragement to continue in the path Christ has set forth for us.©2000 christianaudio.com; 2000 Eugene H Peterson

Honest, faithful, obedient commentary on the truth of God’s Word.

Masterfully presents helpful commentary regarding the life of a Christian without challenging or doubting the complete sufficiency of scripture.

Needs accurate chapter numbers and breaks

Great book, but I’d love to see the audio book actually have real chapter breaks instead of “chapters” that are actually composed of multiple chapters.

Simplifies that which was never meant to be difficult 

I love how this book is practical and yet encourages us to take seriously the devotion we have to Jesus Christ. 

Refreshing and enjoyable

This is a refreshing and enjoyable look at the Christian life. We are not promised a life of ease, but one that will lead to joy. The book belongs alongside such classics as Hind’s Feet in High Places.

Formative work to understand sanctification

Loved this. So many good nuggets driving the reader back to Scripture and Jesus. Grateful for this book
