As a companion to our journey through the ‘travel narrative’ found in Luke 9-19, we encourage you to follow along with Peterson’s Tell It Slant.

This book explores how Jesus used language, particularly in his parables and prayers. His was not a direct language of information or instruction but an indirect, oblique language requiring a participating imagination — "slant" language. Tell It Slant beautifully points to Jesus' engaging, relational way of speaking as a model for us today.
