About this listen
“If anyone knows how to be a pastor in the contemporary context that person is Eugene Peterson. Eugene possesses the rare combination of a pastor’s heart and a pastor’s art. Take and read!” (Richard J. Foster, author of Celebration of Discipline)
“I’ve been nagging Eugene Peterson for years to write a memoir. In our clamorous, celebrity-driven, entertainment culture, his life and words convey a quiet whisper of sanity, authenticity, and, yes, holiness.” (Philip Yancey, author of What Good is God)
“A good book for folks who like pastors. And a good book for folks who don’t. The Pastor is the disarming tale of one of the unlikely suspects who has helped shape North American Christianity.” (Shane Claiborne author of The Irresistible Revolution)

I appreciated the authentic reflection of being a Pastor that was written in this book. It was both thoughtful and provoking and helpful.

Excellent book
In a world of mega churches, “how to grow your church” conferences and pastors as the CEO books, this book is a breath of fresh air. I found myself falling in love again with both the bride of Christ - His Church - and my call to help serve that church as best as I can. Dare I suggest that this book should be compulsory reading for all who wish to enter the vocation of Pastor?

Such an authentic and relatable memoir, even for non Pastors.
Enjoyed the whole memoir, would recommend to Pastors on non Pastors of all backgrounds. A great read.

Good listen
Some interesting points about the role of pastor in 21st century... what is had become, what it should be. Worth a listen to.
This is the life story of the man who translated the Message Bible.
Suitable for teens and above.
I just didn't like the section how he committed adultery as a pastor. He seemed to just mention it in passing, and not talk about the repentance and affects to his family.
