About this title: In this work, Peterson explores how Jesus used language--he was earthy, not abstract; metaphorical, not dogmatic. "Tell It Slant" promises to deepen Christians' understanding of Jesus' words, strengthen their awareness, and nurture their efforts to make all speech a blessing.

"Eugene Peterson is one of those mentors-from-a-distance for me. His depth, insight, and amazing mastery of language always feeds my soul and informs how I live, pastor, and write. This fourth book in his spiritual theology series is every bit as good as the ones that came before it. In this study of the parables and prayers of Jesus, Peterson draws out the way that Jesus talks about God with non-religious people. In addition to the insights he draws from the parables and prayers themselves, Peterson provides important windows into the method behind Jesus' storytelling, and invites the reader to consider the ways we can talk about God among people who are more interested in other things. Highly recommended!"
"I'm reading this book a little each night and finding that Peterson (the translator of The Message) really opens up the Gospel of Luke and Jesus's parables. It's good enough I bought a copy for someone.
Later: Had to return to the library. Will get again later. JM"
