He could be dogmatic at times. He has an over insistence on story and really doesn’t understand the “evolution” of doctrine and thinking that has come from the result of looking at life and the Scriptures I’ve read most of Peterson’s books and now watching and listening to him speak on the You Tube video he comes across as an old man set in his ways.

I read "Working the Angels" and "Five Smooth Stones for Pastoral Work" every year; plus, anything else I can get my hands on. Thanks for letting a broader community know about this wonderful author.

His book "The Contemplative Pastor" radically changed the way I thought about my job (and myself). No one blends deep mystical spirituality, a wide breadth of academic engagement and the centrality of Jesus like he does. I love Peterson.

I go back to him regularly -- his best stuff is readable and re-readable and re-readable and re-readable...you get the drift. I am indebted to him for reminding me again of the nobility of being a good priest. He is the man!
