Notes & Comments

I ponder the orientation of Bible reading: formative!
This book reminded me of an article:
"Conversation with Eugene Peterson" (http://www.leaderu.com/marshill/mhr03/peter1.html)

nature of information: to use, to instruct (by steps)
nature of formation: add to, receive, to form
scripture is a formative language
"our trinity": want need feel (Chapter 3)
