Peter Scazzero

Peter Scazzero (* 1956) ist ein US-amerikanischer evangelikaler Pastor, Buchautor und Gründer der Initiative „Emotionally Healthy Discipleship“, der über 26 Jahre lang die New Life Fellowship Church in New York City leitete. Er wurde vor allem durch seine Bücher über emotional gesunde Spiritualität bekannt, in denen er für eine Verlangsamung des Glaubenslebens plädiert und evangelikale Frömmigkeit mit kontemplativen Praktiken sowie der Auseinandersetzung mit seelischen Prägungen verbindet. Für Bibelleser bietet sein Ansatz Impulse zur Reflexion eigener emotionaler Reife und Schutz vor geistlichem Leistungsdruck, wenngleich konservative Kritiker die Einbindung säkular-psychologischer und mönchischer Elemente beanstanden.
