In this 3-day devotional, Eugene Peterson, the pastor-poet behind The Message Bible, imparts a glimpse of his compelling quest to discover not only how to be a pastor but how to be a human being. It is Peterson's journey to live and teach a life of congruence - between what we do and the way we do it, between what is written in Scripture and how we live out that truth.

How would you describe your faith journey?  Is it a well-established fire?  Is it warming? Comforting? Does it push away darkness?  Or is merely a spark?

Of all the apostles, Paul’s conversion/calling story was arguably the most notable and miraculous, his assignment to take the Gospel to the Gentiles the most unique, and the tangible results of his obedience the most impressive by human standards. Even so, Paul did not operate as a lone wolf, set apart from the pack and self-sufficient. On the contrary, this hero of the Christian faith understood the essential role his brothers and sisters played in his life and stayed connected to them even when his assignment to preach and live truth called him away for long stretches of time.

Not every lie sounds untrue. Some just sound right. And some are repeated so often that they virtually become "common knowledge." This is what makes lies about God so dangerous. So we have to ask, what might God's enemy want us to believe to lead us astray? And would we even see it happening?
