Eugene Peterson has written many books which have greatly blessed me.  His combination of insight, honesty, prophetic distance from the culture, and humor make him an author who truly brings the goods.

Here is a wonderful interview which will benefit pastors and all those who love their pastors.  I love that he was tired of simply “running the damn church.”
