Our society is still obsessed with quick fixes. But Petersons time-tested prescription for discipleship remains the same―a long obedience in the same direction.\nFollowing Jesus requires a deepening life of prayer, and throughout history Christians have learned to pray from the Psalms. Peterson finds particular encouragement for todays pilgrims in the Songs of Ascents (Psalms 120–134). With prophetic and pastoral wisdom, he shows how the psalms teach us to grow in worship, service, joy, work, humility, community, and blessing.\nNow including a bibliography of Petersons works, A Long Obedience in the Same Direction is available as part of the IVP Signature Collection, which features special editions of iconic books in celebration of the seventy-fifth anniversary of InterVarsity Press. A companion Bible study guide is also available.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"IVP Formatio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45255355498549,"sku":"ByrdShop_0830848630","price":29.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780830848638_efe6a68a-35e0-4fdf-a5e2-fe84a8ab5a2a.jpg?v=1779928069","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/a-long-obedience-in-the-same-direction-discipleship-in-an-instant-society-the-ivp-signature-collection-9780830848638","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
