About this product

Product Information

American pastors, says Eugene Peterson, are abandoning their posts at an alarming rate. They are not leaving their churches and getting other jobs. Instead, they have become "a company of shopkeepers, and the shops they keep are churches." Pastors and the communities they serve have become preoccupied with image and standing, with administration, measurable success, sociological impact, and economic viability. In Working the Angles , Peterson calls the attention of his fellow pastors to three basic acts--which he sees as the three angles of a triangle--that are so critical to the pastoral ministry that they determine the shape of everything else. The acts--prayer, reading Scripture, and giving spiritual direction--are acts of attention to God in three different contexts: oneself, the community of faith, and another person. Only by being attentive to these three critical acts, says Peterson, can pastors fulfill their prime responsibility of keeping the religious community attentive to God. Written out of the author's own experience as pastor of a "single pastor church," this well-written, provocative book will be stimulating reading for lay Christians and pastors alike.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!

  • Idispensable reading for pastors

    I bought this as a "replacement," because I gave one too many away. I read it once a year, just to keep me honest in my ministry. It is hard-hitting, right-in-your-face and deeply genuine about the temptations and dangers inherent in laziness, superficiality and pharisaic, cosmetic religion. My favorite author anyway, Peterson does Christian ministry a huge favor with this book. Get it read it. Then read it again. Let it change you into more of a 1 Peter 5:1-5 servant of God's people rich bersett

  • Exactly what I ordered

    Often times when you order from the marketplace, because they use stock picture covers, you may not get exactly what you requested. I am please that each time i have ordered through eBay, I have, and that makes me happy and results in a satisfied customer.
