I was blessed to have known pastor Peterson and Jan when I was in high school and even house sat for them once. I grew up with their kids. What a beautiful family. I’ve thought of them often through the years. They’re home now.
Jan and Eugene passed away within half a year of each other. What a true love story.
They were a beautiful couple. Our pastor shared this with us.
I’m saddened that I never had the opportunity to meet Jan and Eugene. They strike me as such wonderful people. I hope they are both basking in their love and forever within the light of God.
I had a chance to talk to Jan that summer prior to their death. He was not well. I encouraged her to keep working on her book (which she did), and left them a bag of coffee beans with her friend at the post office. I miss them both so much.
For what’s is worth, that was beautiful… I was lucky enough to be there window washer for many years. I didn’t know they had passed. Love you guys forever.
Dear Peterson,
I want to THANK YOU FOR THE MESSAGE. God has use that to change my whole being... Thank you again form bottom of my heart!
I'm a dominican pastor, and he changed my imagination. I'm also looking forward to heaven. I praise God for Eugene.
Such a beautiful man. So thankful for his faith and contributions to the world. Hope to meet him in Heaven.🙏
"You can't always see the existence of faith but you can sure tell when it's not there"
The Message translation of the Bible helps us to understand God's Word in a better way. I am from India. I bought the Message Bible during the Covid lockdown. I cherish meditating on the "Message Bible".
Dear Lord,
Thank you for the Life & Work of Pastor Eugene Peterson.
Today marks the 3rd anniversary of Eugene's entering into the Glory. I come back to this video often on days I am discouraged in ministry.
Kind of sad that I'm only really finding out about Peterson after he passed. Such a genuine and thoughtful man.
Me too so sad that I discovered about him today. Just read in the comments that he passed away.Comfort to his dear wife
Oh dear pastor Peterson, the man of God, I am so gladly read your "Message". Even you are in heaven now with Jesus, you had given one Message here for your memory - Thank you
I met pastor. Eugene. H. Peterson's book when I was 18 years old in Korea and now I become over 40 years. I realize how his book and message has influenced to my life. Miss him so much and love him so much. It is physically long distance but he will be always in my heart. It is my dream to visit his beautiful and peaceful home near flathead lake someday. With all my respect and love, I am very sad but please peace and comfort in the heaven.
The more I here Peterson the more I feel @ peace with God. I got burnt by religion-church and said the hell with it. But listening to Peterson reminds me that God is good.
Simply Beautiful. Thank you is all I can say. Thank you.
I just finished reading his biography a burning in my bones, and unfortunately didn’t get to know about him earlier. I cried reading the final pages. Came here to listen to how his raspy voice was like. Glad to be able to hear both Eugene and Jan here. I like his grin.
Hi!. Who is the author of his biography?
How we stumble upon the right videos...🙏🏽
My marriage & my children.. how blessed you are♡
Awakening moment in my heart! 😢❤
Now they are with their father, holding hands in heaven. ❤️🙏🏽🥲
Thank you for making this beautiful tribute and sharing it with us🙏🏾
Beautiful man and beautiful story 🌄🎂🎈
Thank you. He continues to be treasure for life.
God bless together R .I.P❤
Eugene has been my pastor for over 40 years and not known it. His words and thoughts move me closer to the Lord. I look forward to finally meeting him when I pass through the thin veil. Well done pastor!
I am really blessed today. I have been asking God to open my eyes. He got me here and I have to say that for the first time in 43 years I have understood about my purpose in life. Bless you Pastor! Thank you Lord 💖
It is impossible to respect a man like Peterson who was incapable of bothering to see if there was any evidence to back up the ridiculous and superstitious claims that his religion makes and then wasted his life believing nonsense and beseeching others to indulge in the same delusions, whilst promoting an evil doctrine which amongst many other depravities condones slavery and the oppression of women
Two contrast personal opinions, for these two people eyes are opened to two entirely different things.. let's see how these beliefs shape their future and the people around them.😊🤞
If Obi-Wan got caught in a wormhole, transported to Earth, and settled down in Maryland and became a pastor. What a fascinating fellow.
There is something so haunting about this video and beautiful at the same time.
thank you a million times Eugene for your life and contribution. your book "run with the horses" has been my favourite of all time and I've passed it on to three of my Friends and they really loved it too.
The peace of genuine faith, their love for each other and the beauty of Montana all reflected in this video. Eugene recently passed away and is with the Lord. I pray God's comfort for his wife and family and all those who loved him.
03 Mar 2018 What a wonderful blessing this bed-bound morning was for me to “meet” Eugene Peterson! THANK YOU I WILL GET OUT OF THIS BED NOW AND face this day...God Bless you.
Jesus loves you. a.
A. Porter: Praise God! He made it possible - all of it especially your getting out of bed! Been there done that too
Such a wonderful, wonderful couple. Eugene has spoken to me through his books more than any other author, he is shaping me though we never met. So thankful for him
So much wisdom packed into a short video. Soaking it in!
We need to go back to the genuine, pure simple gospel! Thanks Eugene!
Really?
Our lives were truly touch by such a humble and Godly man. We re great to be able to have spent time with them and we learned so much.Prayers are with you Jan and your family
Rick and Peggy in Vancouver
Beautiful people Beautiful place...
While watching this & listening to him speak, all I can think about is if they ever do a movie on his life - Gary Busey should play him at this stage of his life, so towards the last half. Gary’s voice sounds EXACTLY like Mr Peterson’s that if I wasn’t paying attention, I’d swear it was Gary speaking. Just a cool thought I guess
I love how he doesn't include The Message as his own book, he is so humble it blows me away and definitely inspires me.
LOVE it.........man I am inspired...........
It is his book because he adds so much to the scriptures that it’s not even recognizable. Have you compared actual Bible translations to the Message?

Read the 10 commandments in Exodus 20 and the law in detail afterwards and tell me which part of it is dishonest. Let God be true and every man a liar.

"Found when I wasn't looking, heard when I wasn't listening"... Almost brought me to tears. Yes, this is Christ, absolutely. His Grace cannot be measured.
Thank you for posting this, it's my new fave UA-cam video.

@@jupitermoongauge4055 You seem to have watched and listened a lot to someone you don’t respect. You also seemed determined to bring down someone many respect; what are you ultimately trying to do?
@@jupitermoongauge4055 Congrats of sorts I guess. Maybe one of the saddest comments Ive read in 10 years of rummaging about yt. Thats quite an achievement.
Maybe just the juxtaposition of something so hopeful, sublime and beautiful and your sad sourness? Yeah, that was probably it.
Feel for you. Being lost in the dark ain't pleasant. I was there until I was 21 when I was "Found when I wasn't looking, Heard when I wasn't listening. Beauty found me".
32 years on now. Feel like a small child up to my knees on the edge of a vast ocean.
Same here. Do you know what he was reading that from?
Oh wow! Depth! Inspiration! How’s heaven treating you both then? RIP 🙏☺️
....... such a humble man not show casing himself....but Christ our Lord... as he said “ our churches need to return to the WORD, in everyday experiences and words....
Integrity beyond many...
R.I.P. Pastor
Coram Deo~
With the drama and controversy surrounding superstar pastors I wish there was more just like Eugene Peterson.
Beautiful film thank you
You know, I'm at the senior end of my ministry life... At 57, I find in watching Eugene, from this to his time with Bono, a yet longing desire to have those rare spiritual gems in my life, ahead of me, yet behind me with their hand between my shoulder blades calling me higher. We are less without him... May we grow to be him for the next generation: a hard example to follow.
Michael Brantley: ask Jesus. Nothing is too hard for Him. But be Michael not Eugene.
It is beyond my ability to give expression to all that Eugene Peterson (through his books, his talks, and his character) means to my life, especially in eternal matters. I marvel that he was a man so often maligned and misunderstand, yet so consistent in his spirit of grace. I thank God for him.
AMEN!!! HOLD HANDS AND WALK INTO HEAVEN TOGETHER!!! GOD BUMPS ALL OVER!! BEAUTIFUL CLIP! THANK YOU!
RIP Eugene Peterson
I found this when I wasn’t looking, how blessed I am .
What a beautiful video and a beautiful couple. Mr. Peterson is a gift of God to the Church. I can't help but imagine that talking to one of the Apostles in heaven someday will feel something like this.
What a blessing and a true gift this man was. How I aspire to be like him. So glad i watched this video today. God is so good and it is definitely time to start giving so much more back.
An inspiration to all of us. Thank you, God, for Eugene and his talent, his patience, his generosity and faithfulness. He will be missed. Moreover, he will surely be enjoying the heavenly hosts with You!
Ohhh my God! Look this couple..
I really like The Message Bible.
Beautifully made film by Greg Fromholz. What a saintly couple the Petersons are.
Eugene's life is nothing short of inspiring! I love this man and I never met him personally... but he changed my life in so many ways! For sure I want to sit with him and talk for days!!!
This is so beautiful beyond words.
kenship1972: brought tears to my eyes. 💕✝️😊
Thank you a million times Eugene. your book "Run with the horses"
Eugene Peterson is surely inspired by the Holy Spirit to present the history of God's salvation in the perspective of ordinary people, of those who have nothing in the lives. He is so humble that he doesn't even brag about "The Message."
I have a Catholic/Ecumenical edition of that Bible translation.
I share this video with every young pastor and new friend I meet. It is a pillar for holiness in this generation. After I watch it I always feel more grounded. And re-focused on the kingdom. Thank you Pastor Eugene.
I just discovered EUGENE A couple of months ago at a used bookstore when I purchased The MESSAGE 😊
I am feeling closer to god reading the message Bibles and they are both made with passion and love as coming back to Christianity it is refreshing for me to learn and understand what it's all about.thanks again I like the way the remix Bible is like a book with the paragraphs in it and it explains everything you need to know.
These short doc style should really be a series covering many different good shepherds/pastors in our world today. There's so much talk about clergy caught in some kind of scandal, it's creating an inordinate amount of distrust of good holy men who still faithfully serve Him in all manner of service in their small corners of influence. Make it a series in the way of Chef's Table and put it on netflix.
Just lovely, his words and your film, what a blessing x
Beautifully done, friends! Love went into this and love was shown through it.
Just be yourself,not anybody else
As Christendom continues its massive transition into diaspora. It is good to see there is hope and future.
Such a precious man.
Such a beautiful man.
The kind of people you want for neighbours, Humble and real.
A Long Obedience in the Same Direction
It took him 20 years to write The Message and he spent 5 of those years learning the language of his congregation. He wrote 35 books or so, but does not include The Message as his own. This is so precious. I wonder that he’d say it belongs to the people and God.
Wow, how BEAUTIFUL this is. Thank you for posting this beautiful film.
Thank you for this video ... Thank you Pastor Peterson ....
crying. inside and out.
Same 🙏💕
Be yourself! Thank you Lord.
What a beautiful man. What a beautiful life. ❤
R.i.p. Eugene Peterson
Thank you Eugene for everything.
beautiful
What a lovely interview. How it speaks of the sweetness of Father manifest in this dear brother. God be praised for His willingness to communicate Himself to/in/thru us to the world around as, just as He has in brother Peterson.
Awesome
I like
Eugene and His Message Bible...very grounded person and book.
Love this video. Beautiful legacy
Love that guy
Thank You🙏🏻
So glad I stumbled across this.
I am really enjoying the message Bible and the remix Bible it is much easier to read and understand. I think it is beautifully written and suits us to understand, in this modern world about God and what it means to be a Christian and be a good person I find the message Bible much easier then the old Bibles to understand and study it is helping me a lot thank you so much Eugene Paterson god bless you
beautiful x

Oh wow. This is an incredible movie... Just wow.
Simple, beautiful.
Thankyou
Thank you 🌈🌈🌈🙏💕
I bought The Message quite a few years back, maybe in 2003 or 2004. I never got around to reading it until just a few days ago and it's now May 20, 2018. I've been reading and studying the KJV Bible and checking out the interlinear Hebrew and Greek translations a little. It wasn't to long after I had found 3 Crosses that I was in Ollies in their book section looking to see what Bibles they had and this very tall, well dressed black man caught my attention. We smiled at each other and I told him what I was looking for and he told me he was looking for The Message. This was in the Spring of 2015 I believe because I had recently found the 2nd Cross on 3-7-15 and the 3rd Cross on 3-11-15. I knew I had The Message at home; but I hadn't read it yet and I wasn't quite sure where I had placed it. So I told him that he'd probably have to go to Barnes and Noble to find that book. This man was all by himself and perhaps an angel among us. I found The Message in one of my book shelves just a couple days ago and started reading it. I was very intrigued because it said that Eugene had studied Hebrew and Greek so I started reading. Pastor Peterson really brings out the Hebraic expressions in The Message with a deeper expression that brings about the deeper meanings and understanding. Thank you so much Pastor Peterson for this wonderful translation of the Bible called The Message. :)
A REAL INSPIRATION
Thank you for what you gave us, thank you for The Message Bible, it changed everything. We are so grateful for your life Eugene. Enjoy being in the presence of the One you loved and lived for ❤️ Till me meet again
wow.
