Working the Angles

by Eugene H. Peterson
Working the Angles
Working the Angles

Reorienting pastors to foundational ministry practices.

If you're feeling disconnected from the heart of pastoral ministry, "Working the Angles" could be the guiding compass you need. Eugene Peterson eloquently nudges shepherds back to the core of their calling—prayer, engaging with Scripture, and guiding others spiritually. His insights are as relevant today as they were at first writing, offering a refreshing reminder of what matters most in spiritual leadership.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
