Tracy Groot's Reviews > A Long Obedience in the Same Direction: Discipleship in an Instant Society

I'm convinced there's a time for every book. This one sat on my shelf for about 600 years. I'm not sure what made me take it down, but I did, and I read it, and I loved it. I read it bit by bit, a few pages at a time, because that's how I usually roll with books about Christianity, either the disciplines thereof or the adventure thereof. This book is about the maintenance thereof. It's well-written, inspiring, strengthening, and heartening. It's a book for the long haul, about the long haul, with insights into the workaday glories through an examination of the Psalms of ascent. When you feel a little bereft after finishing a book, it's a good one.
