The Christian pastor, scholar and author of The Message guides you on a year of daily reading, reflection, and prayer with Jesus. Chosen from the Gospels, these 365 readings encourage us to remove ourselves from our hectic, day-to-day pace and pray with the natural, comforting rhythms of Jesus' own teachings. Each selection is accompanied by reflections and prayer from the theologian and Gold Medallion Book Award-winner Eugene Peterson. With the wisdom of the Gospels and Peterson's inspiring insight, this volume will be a welcome companion for anyone who seeks a spiritual connection with Jesus.
