In Jeremiah 12:5 God says to the prophet, "If you're worn out in
this footrace with men, what makes you think you can race against
horses?" We all long to live life at its best-to fuse freedom and
spontaneity with purpose and meaning. Why then do we often find our
lives so humdrum, so unadventuresome, so routine? Or else so
frantic, full of activity, but still devoid of fulfillment? How do
we learn to risk, to trust, to pursue wholeness and excellence-to
run with the horses instead of shuffling along with the crowd? In a
series of profound reflections on the life of Jeremiah the prophet,
Eugene Peterson explores the heart of what it means to be fully and
genuinely human. In his signature pastoral style, he invites
readers to grasp the biblical truth that each person's story of
faith is completely original. Peterson's writing is filled with
humor and self-reflection, insight and wisdom, helping to set a
course for others in the quest for life at its best. This special
commemorative edition includes a preface taken from Eric Peterson's
homily at his father's memorial service.
