About this item

From pastor and theologian Eugene Peterson, an inspiring and insightful guide to that most vital—but oft-elusive—spiritual practice: prayer. For those Christians who appreciate the necessity for prayer—and even yearn for it—but who struggle to find fulfillment and satisfaction in their prayer, Answering God holds the answers. To address this common obstacle, Eugene Peterson turns to the Psalms for spiritual formation, drawing on his extensive knowledge in Biblical studies, history, and Hebrew. Peterson guides readers through the Psalms, offering insight and perspective to empower readers to dive more deeply and intimately into conversational prayer. For anyone struggling with prayer, or even those just looking to deepen, renew, or evolve their practice, Answering God offers a fresh look at the Psalms as dynamic tools for prayer. This classic guide to Christian living reveals how to transform your spiritual practice: The Psalms as a Prayer Book: Learn why Peterson calls the Psalms the "requisite toolbox" for faith, designed by God to train you in honest and comprehensive prayer. From Monologue to Dialogue: Shift your perspective from talking about God to talking to God, turning prayer into a rich, responsive conversation. Overcoming Prayer Obstacles: Find gentle guidance for the common struggles of distraction and dissatisfaction that can make a fulfilling prayer life feel out of reach. The Language of Faith: Discover how the earthy, honest, and metaphorical language of the Psalms helps you pray as you actually are, not as you think you should be.
