Quotes from Eugene Peterson in Christ Plays in Ten Thousand Places


Living fully and well is at the heart of all serious spirituality. (29)

The fundamental inadequacy of codes of conduct for giving direction in how to live the spiritual life is that it puts us in charge....God is moved off the field of action and into the judges stand where he grades our performance (43)

The Spirit of God that moves over the waters "in the beginning" continues to move, continues to create (22)

We begin a journey by first deciding on a direction.
