'Road Less Traveled'

The Road Less Traveled is a very popular nonfiction book that was published in 1978. Since then, it has sold millions of copies. It was written by the late Morgan Scott Peck, a clinical psychiatrist. Peck was raised in a Quaker family in New York City, which means he grew up familiar with the Bible. In The Road Less Traveled, he attempts to combine his knowledge of the Bible and the teachings of Jesus with psychiatry. Written during the era of the self-help movement, the book sought to teach people how to achieve the benefits of Christianity without Jesus. This is why it is called The Road Less Traveled. What did Jesus say about the broad road and the narrow road, and how does that relate to Peck’s book? Join the conversation and get answers to these questions and more on According2Sam episode #411.
