Synopsis "Run With the Horses: The Quest for Life at its Best "

In Jeremiah 12:5 God says to the prophet, "If you're worn out in this footrace with men, what makes you think you can race against horses?" We all long to live life at its best--to fuse freedom and spontaneity with purpose and meaning. Why then do we often find our lives so humdrum, so unadventuresome, so routine? Or else so frantic, full of activity, but still devoid of fulfillment? How do we learn to risk, to trust, to pursue wholeness and excellence--to run with the horses instead of shuffling along with the crowd?In a series of profound reflections on the life of Jeremiah the prophet, Eugene Peterson explores the heart of what it means to be fully and genuinely human. In his signature pastoral style, he invites readers to grasp the biblical truth that each person's story of faith is completely original. Peterson's writing is filled with humor and self-reflection, insight and wisdom, helping to set a course for others in the quest for life at its best.This special commemorative edition includes a preface taken from Eric Peterson's homily at his father's memorial service.

Eugene H. Peterson (1932–2018) fue un pastor, teólogo, escritor y profesor estadounidense reconocido por su enfoque cálido, pastoral y profundamente humano de la vida cristiana. Nacido en Washington y criado en Montana, creció en un entorno marcado por la fe sencilla de su madre pentecostal y el oficio de carnicero de su padre, experiencias que más tarde influyeron en su comprensión práctica y cercana del Evangelio.

Peterson estudió en Seattle Pacific University, el Seminario Teológico de Nueva York y la Universidad Johns Hopkins, donde combinó la formación pastoral con la académica. Durante casi treinta años fue pastor fundador de Christ Our King Presbyterian Church en Maryland, etapa que moldeó gran parte de su pensamiento espiritual y su compromiso con el acompañamiento personal de las comunidades de fe.

Es célebre por The Message, una paráfrasis contemporánea de la Biblia que buscó hacer el texto accesible, directo y comprensible para los lectores modernos. Además, escribió numerosas obras sobre espiritualidad, liderazgo pastoral y vida cristiana, entre ellas Un pastor según el corazón de Dios, Larga obediencia en la misma dirección y Compañeros en el camino.

Peterson fue apreciado por su lenguaje poético, su énfasis en la vida interior y su invitación constante a una fe vivida con autenticidad, lentitud y profundidad.
