The fourth volume in Peterson's best-selling "conversations" in spiritual theology Just as God used words both to create the world and to give us commandments, we too use words for many different purposes.

Peterson's greatest gift is his ability to write about such ideas as sin, repentance, grace, and glory in masterfully simple - and concrete - ways."Peter W. Marty"If books were priced according to the linguistic care with which their sentences were assembled, this volume would be priceless. Peterson strikes forcefully at theological abstraction and sentimental godtalk, offering a provocative treatise on the conversational giftedness of Jesus. . . . A compendium of marvelous insights for rethinking our own expressions of faith."Booklist"Valuable to Christian readers striving to make faith more than a Sunday ritual."Bibliotheca SacraAs an aid toward growth in godliness this book is highly recommended.InterpretationTell it Slant is nourishment for the mind and spirit. It shows us, rather than simply tells us, how language, by being down to earth, respectful of the images, metaphors, and quirky details of daily life, can evoke the gift of Gods presence. This journey into the conversational genius of Jesus in his parables and prayers will inspire readers to go and do likewise.ChoicePeterson is a skilled storyteller, and he keeps his stories simple, short, and to the point. . . . Recommended.Christian CenturyPeterson, a master with language himself, looks at Jesus use of language. . . . Preachers especially will find themselves returning to Petersons imaginative expositions of Jesus words and encounters.About the AuthorEugene H. Peterson was a longtime pastor and is professor emeritus of spiritual theology at Regent College, Vancouver, British Columbia. His many other acclaimed books include The Contemplative Pastor, Eat This Book, The Jesus Way. N° de réf. du vendeur DADAX080286886X
