In life's trials and triumphs, God is initiating boys and men through the stages of manhood from beloved son to cowboy to warrior to lover to king to sage. Fathered by God maps out the path of manhood - not more rules, not another list of principles, not formulas, but a sure path men have followed for centuries before us.

Story
This revolutionary book about our future is based on the simple idea that, according to the Bible, heaven is not our eternal home - the New Earth is. As Jesus says in the Gospel of Matthew, the next chapter of our story begins with "the renewal of all things", by which he means the Earth we love in all its beauty, our own selves, and the things that make for a rich life: music, art, food, laughter, and all that we hold dear. Everything shall be renewed "when the world is made new".

How would it feel to enter into prayer with confidence and assurance - certain that God heard you and that your prayers would make a difference? It would likely feel amazing and unfamiliar. That's because often our prayers seem to be met with silence or don't appear to change anything. Either response can lead to disappointment or even despair in the face of our ongoing battles and unmet longings - especially when we don't know if we're doing something wrong or if some prayers just don't work.

We are at war. Not with a foreign government or domestic terrorists or a creepy new artificial intelligence hell-bent on taking over the world. No, it’s a war we feel deep inside our own chests: we are at war with lies. The problem isn’t so much that we tell lies but that we live them. We let them into our bodies, and they sabotage our peace.

Amazing
What I really enjoyed was the real and raw approach John Eldridge takes in describing the current situation in society.
I so enjoy his poetic descriptions and dedication to union with God, on a daily basis, each morning dying to self taking up the cross.
Emphasizing the constant horizontal and vertical relationship building

Excellent book
I loved this book so much. First of all the narrator has a very soothing voice but the content really makes you think about your life. I love that the author doesn’t ignore the fact that we are to do something other than Just say we have accepted Christ into our hearts. He discusses what to do with our pride and other harmful human traits and opens the eyes of the reader to Just how much there is to be thankful for and how our approach to can hinder us from seeing that. A very encouraging book and I’ll be listening to it again.

Just the remedy I needed. I can hear the God I used to know speaking through John… and I’m leaving space for God to come through again. Thank you John!

Life Changing
This book has offered so many minor but extremely helpful ways to start taking your life back. I have already implemented a few of John’s suggested practices and feel less stressed from worldly news and events and more in control. I also have way more time to spend with our Father. I appreciate how this book is simple, yet truly life changing.

Not what I though this book could be about
If you are a God believer, Christian and read a bible , you will not be impressed about the content of this book. Most of the time the author refer to verses of the bible so for someone who read the bible I already knew most of them.
The other thing that made me feel insulted is that the author say « saying that you don’t do dogs is like saying you are not compassionate » there are plenty of reason why some people don’t do dog and are still compassionate. Just because I don’t have one doesn’t mean that I am not. And not all people who have dogs are compassionate. I know someone who has 3 and is the most cruel person that I have ever known. This person laughs at other people misery, evil but does the fact she has 3 dogs makes her compassionate ? I don’t think so...
