Editor’s note: This is a reprinted column from Jack Purcell’s “On the Journey” archives. It originally appeared in The Star in 2013.
If you have read this column regularly you know by now that I am a great fan of the writing of Eugene Peterson. The passage we are going to look at today is from The Message, found in Colossians 2:6-7.
Peterson always seems to be able to put the old language into new language in a way that makes you think, “I wish I could put my thoughts together like that.” Take a look and see what I mean.
