The Wisdom of Each Other is highly readable and packed with gems of insight into the work of the Spirit and the silliness of what often passes for spirituality. In fact, Peterson differentiates penetratingly simply between Religion, what we do and Spirituality, what the Spirit does in us. He affirms the laity in their importance and gives their vocations equal status with clergy. In a series of letters from a long time friend and Christian to a mate who has rediscovered faith in Jesus, the author refreshingly takes a lot of the hype out of modern religion and points the reader towards the originator and sustainer of the life of Christ within. Friends, Peterson maintains. have much to offer each other in pressing on to maturity. Highly recommended. A good gift.

An excellent book. Exposing the deep need we have for each other. Addressing the critical issue of relationship over religion.

Profound theology in simple terms. Get it!

Peterson has insights that make reading his books, a reflective experience. The issues he raises are timely, the argument thought-provoking. I find myself saying, 'I hadn't thought of that' more often with his work, than with many others. I highly recommend this one!

I really enjoyed this book. I will enjoy discussing it with our book club. It gave me a lot to chew on.

This is a really pretty book: through an exchange of letters, the reader sees the development of two men growing, and leaning on each other for strength, in Christ.

Christian books tend to be heavy, so this serves as a good prop, right underneath your pillow, so you can peak into these wise letters, or to protect you from bad dreams I suppose.
