Publisher's Summary

Every man was once a boy. And every little boy has dreams, big dreams: dreams of being the hero, of beating the bad guys, of doing daring feats and rescuing the damsel in distress. Every little girl has dreams, too: of being rescued by her prince and swept up into a great adventure, knowing that she is the beauty.

But what happens to those dreams when we grow up? Walk into most churches, have a look around, and ask yourself: What is a Christian man? Without listening to what is said, look at what you find there. Most Christian men are...bored.

In Wild at Heart, John Eldredge invites men to recover their masculine heart, defined in the image of a passionate God. And he invites women to discover the secret of a man's soul and to delight in the strength and wildness men were created to offer.

John is the best.

The book is incredible. It's not easy being a man today, looking for something definitively masculine AND Christian to grind yourself from time to time. There simply aren't many string rule models, or books that seem to get what we truly need: unapologetic Christian masculinity that doesn't over compensate, and is supported by actual biblical truth (aka. It accurately reflects and uses the Bible's teachings). This book nails it though. Across the board. He's not pretending to be some alpha, former navy seal, but he's comfortable in claiming his masculinity in a holistic, healthy, and humble way. Not my first time through, and it certainly won't be my last.

Good points, religious approach

This work touches on a lot of men's issues, many himan nature things. I enjoyed it, and it benefitted me. Written from a Christian angle, I dont have context as Im not Christian so I gotta read up to really get it.

A call to be a man

This book really draws you in and draws out what it is to be a man of God. In our modern day we have forgotten what it looks like to be a strong man and lead. This book really narrows in on that and calls us higher. We were meant to be more than docile men who sit on the sidelines, watching life go by. GOD MADE US FOR MORE. Read it and find out :)

Great listen

this book was a really valuable tool. I'm not Christion and I could do without the Bible pieces, however if you listen around it the message is worth the effort.
