"Impatience is the besetting sin of pastors . . . sometimes you've got to read 300 pages before something happens"
From the following video interview of Eugene Peterson, well worth a watch for a number of reasons.
Thanks to Matt who shared this video with a different quote of the day. Definately worth sharing.
Also a choice moment, when the interviewer asks how he could have turned down a chance to hang out with Bono in order to keep working on The Message Eugene replies, "Dean, it was Isaiah!"
