Pastor Eugene Peterson once told his congregation, “The underlying conviction of the work of the pastor is that the words of Jesus are as true now as when first spoken, and that every named life in this congregation is as important as those twelve named disciples.” This brief devotional is drawn from Peterson’s sermons on the four gospels, where we get a glimpse of Jesus’s earthly life and ministry.
