Today, reading is largely a consumer activity, done for information that may fuel ambitions or careers -- and the faster the better. \u003ci\u003eTake and Read \u003c\/i\u003erepresents Eugene H. Peterson's attempt to rekindle the activity of spiritual reading, reading that considers any book that comes to hand in a spiritual way, tuned to the Spirit, alert to intimations of God. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eTake and Read\u003c\/i\u003e provides an annotated list of the books that have stood the test of time and that, for Peterson, are spiritually formative in the Christian life. The books on this list range from standard spiritual classics to novels, poems, and mysteries, and include an equally broad spectrum of authors -- from Augustine and C. S. Lewis to William Faulkner and Fyodor Dostoyevsky. Annotations following each entry offer Peterson's own significant insights into the power of each work.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Eugene H.
