The following is a personality profile of Eugene H Peterson based on his work.
Eugene H Peterson is expressive, social and generous.
He is empathetic, he feels what others feel and is compassionate towards them. He is unstructured as well: he does not make a lot of time for organization in his daily life. But, Eugene H Peterson is also confident: he is hard to embarrass and is self-confident most of the time.
More than most people, his choices are driven by a desire for discovery.
Considers independence to guide a large part of what he does: he likes to set his own goals to decide how to best achieve them. He is also relatively unconcerned with tradition: he cares more about making his own path than following what others have done.
