Perfect for you if...

You're drawn to spirituality expressed through lyrical language rather than doctrine or instruction.
You appreciate Peterson's particular voice and want to experience his thinking beyond his theology books.
You read poetry for reflection and quiet moments, not for clever wordplay or experimental form.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer contemporary poetry that challenges conventional belief or explores doubt and ambiguity.
You're looking for poems about nature, love, or personal experience outside a religious framework.
You want a longer collection. At 92 pages organised into three sections, this is intentionally lean and focused.

About this book

Eugene H. Peterson, a Christian pastor and author of The Message and Run with Horses, presents a personal collection of poetry reflecting his spirituality. Peterson was long known as a pastor, professor, and provocateur. With this first collection of verse, he also became known as a poet. The poems in Holy Luck were written over many years, initially composed as individual pieces sent to family, friends, and church congregations. The collection is organized into three thematic sections: verses on the Beatitudes, the kingdom of God in the ordinary, and following Jesus everyday. Peterson, who translated the bestselling Bible paraphrase The Message, has now gathered these poems into one volume.
