St. Peter’s Anglican Church

Our Wednesday night programs are set to start back on January 21. We will have three offerings to reach the needs of our community.

A Long Obedience in the Same Direction - Lead by Gordon Bals

As a society, we are no less obsessed with the immediate than when Eugene Peterson first wrote this Christian classic. If anything, email and the Internet may have intensified our quest for the quick fix. But Peterson’s time-tested prescription for discipleship remains the same - a long obedience in the same direction. Tucked away in the Hebrew Psalter, Peterson discovered “an old dog-eared songbook,” the Songs of Ascents that were sung by pilgrims on their way up to worship in Jerusalem. In these songs (Psalms 120-134) Peterson finds encouragement for modern pilgrims as we learn to grow in worship, service, joy, work, happiness, humility, community and blessing. This 20th anniversary edition of A Long Obedience in the Same Direction features these Psalms in Peterson’s widely acclaimed paraphrase, The Message. He also includes an epilogue in which he reflects on the themes of this book and his ministry during the twenty years since its original publication. Get the book at Amazon.

Lord, Teach me to Pray - Lead by Marjean Brooks

In this rerelease of Kay’s best-selling 28-day study you’ll experience the instructions Jesus gave to His disciples and all His children to help them know how to pray, what to pray, and what to expect when they pray.
