Synopsis
Helping men rediscover their masculine heart, this guide to understanding Christian manhood and Christian men offers a refreshing break from the chorus of voices urging men to be more responsible, reliable, dutiful... and dead. , God designed men to be dangerous, says John Eldredge. Simply look at the dreams and desires written in the heart of every boy: To be a hero, to be a warrior, to live a life of adventure and risk. Sadly, most men abandon those dreams and desires-aided by a Christianity that feels like nothing more than pressure to be a "nice guy." It is no wonder that many men avoid church, and those who go are often passive and bored to death. In this provocative book, Eldredge gives women a look inside the true heart of a man and gives men permission to be what God designed them to be-dangerous, passionate, alive, and free!, This breakout bestseller continues to have a powerful impact on the lives of both men and women who read it. In response to overwhelming demand is is now available in an audio format.

HIGHLY recommend.
Christian men everywhere should use this as a source of encouragement and guidance for moving through life. You discover other men struggle with you struggle with and you are not alone. It leads with scripture and actual examples and really dives into the deep issues men face. I plan on reading at least once a year as a reminder that I’m not alone in my struggle and I have a loving, living Father and other men in my corner with me.

Great book for all Men
This is a wonderful book for all men to read. I bought this for a male friend of mine. This author is wonderful and his wife wrote the companion book for women, which I have. A great Christian book to let men know who wonderfully they are made and what their potential can be with God to guide them. Thank you Seller for this book. It is used, and has highlighting & some writing in it, but the book is completely in tact and readable.

Required reading for Christians
We have all heard of the full armor of God. But how much thought have we put into its actual use? Author Christa Crawford puts it into perspective with practical every day situations. This is my second copy as I gave the first to someone going through difficult times who really needed it’s wisdom and insight.

Where have all the brave men gone?
This is a must read book for all men and also women who want to understand mens heart. Full of wonderful insights. I bought this book because I had read the other book by the author's wife, called "Captivating" which is addressed to women. Since I was really blessed by it, I wanted to understand the men in my live. What are their biggest fears, what questions are deep inside their souls, how can I encourage them better, and how I can be a better woman being around the men I love in my life (my father, my brother, my best friends and boyfriend). It is nicely written and easy to understand. The perfect book to read when one decides to find out the core of a man's soul and what would stir his heart back into life. We are reminded that God wants all of us to be alive as His image bearer, and that we have an enemy who is jealous of our glory and who from the very beginning wants to destroy our hearts. Many of us have lost our heart. This book encourages us to fight for it with the help of God. Absolutely a blessing!Read full review

Wild At Heart review
John and Staci Eldridge and friends have a different spin on the life in Christ than more orthodox and traditional philosophies. The very substantial spirituality that they embody is very appealing and certainly isn't some radical offshoot and not denominational. There is an advocacy of a life style that it may take readying more of John's books than this one. This is directed to men, by the way with a developmental current which isn't to say that women won't find it equally resonating. His writing style is such that there is no chore at all in long reading sessions. The book sellers service was prompt.

Do Men Really Read Books Like This?
When I received this book, I was reading another book so I gave it to my husband and asked him to read it. The subheading, "Discovering the Secret of a Man's Soul", seemed like something my husband might be interested in. He took the book and spent a long time reading it. I later learned that the reason it took him so long to read the book is because he found it rather boring. My husband is a Christian and has read many Christian books so I knew this was not a good thing when he gave the book a thumbs down. Mr. Eldredge believes that deep in his heart, every man longs for a battle to fight, an adventure to live, and a beauty to rescue. He says that most men in the church believe God put them on the earth to be a "good boy". Mr. Eldredge believes masculinity is something that is passed between men. A boy cannot learn masculinity from other boys, and he cannot learn it from the world of women. The author made some interesting points and I am sure that some men have found the book helpful but it just wasn't for me.Read full review

Great insight
This is part of a men’s study I do. It helps to bring out the real man that lies within us. John Eldridge is a wonderful author. This is the first of many of his.

Wild at Heart, by John Eldredge
John Eldredge's founding premise is that man was CREATED in a realm in which the devil was already running around as a bad guy. But GOD had said everything was VERY GOOD. This would mean that He called the devil "good" when the devil is evil and a liar from the beginning (John 8:44). Lying is not good. According to Eldredge, the desire a man has for a battle to fight (hence, the title "Wild at Heart" showing motivation to face battles and win them) came from man being created in the midst of a "wild enterprise"(devil running around to tempt Adam & Eve). In the section entitled "What is a Man For?", he says, "...why does a man long for a battle to fight? Because when we enter the story in Genesis, we step into a world AT WAR." (emphasis mine) Is this a description of a perfect world that God described in Genesis? "The lines have been drawn. ... Somewhere back before Eden, in the mystery of eternity past, there was a coup, a rebellion, an assasination attempt." Eldredge goes on to describe a concept called the "Gap Theory". This theory was construed to allow for a man-made time frame of "millions of years" of earth history...a time which many scientists falsely promote. This theory supposes that God destroyed the earth with a global flood because of Lucifer's sin before the "story in Genesis." He later brought only a local flood with Noah and the ark. The "Gap Theory" is riddled with both Biblical and scientific errors, and Eldredge's use of this false concept leads him to make false conclusions. One of these false conclusions is that God called the "whole wild enterprize good" (Eldredge, p. 200) and that His Word comes in "many ways" (including rock n roll music and movies--see quote below). With the Devil running around tempting people, the universe at the end of Creation Week would not have been "very good" as God had said. Eldredge's next paragraph is most telling of all. It reveals that his false premise led to a BAD conclusion concerning God's Word. Here is a portion: "God is intimately personal with us and he speaks in ways that are peculiar to our own quirky hearts--not just through the Bible, but through the whole of creation. To Stasi he speaks through movies. To Craig he speaks through rock and roll (he called me the other day after listening to "Running Through the Jungle" to say he was fired up to go study the Bible). God's word to me comes in may ways--through sunsets and friends and films and music and wilderness and books." (p. 200) To his credit, he does make some excellent points and I enjoyed reading the book. But, my enjoyment comes mostly from the fact that his book furthur strenthened my resolve to promote Biblical creationism and the design of God. It made me realize more so just how crucial to everything else in life is one's belief about origins. My conclusion is that this book is very dangerous because 1. it mixes truth with error, and 2. it begins with a false premise. Eldredge also communicates some beneficial thoughts about men, but how he arrived at those conclusions is suspect at best because of his false premise. Be warned of mixing truth with error.Read full review

Great Book
Wild at Heart is written by John Eldridge. It is a great book for men and women. It discusses man’s inmost passions of being wild at heart. Although it is written more towards men, women can get a lot out of it by understanding men’s desires. It discusses a wide array of topics including questions, vulnerabilities, and struggles every man deals with. He says that the church is sending wrong signals to men, while Eldridge believes men should be dangerous instead of just nice guys. Eldridge puts a lot of focus on how society is trying emasculate boys. It discusses how males are looking for validation of their masculinity in the wrong places. They look for confirmation of masculinity by getting affection from women. Eldridge assures that men will never find their masculinity by going to women. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone. It taught me so many different life lessons. Being in college, I’m trying to figure out what I would like to do with the rest of my life. It encouraged me not to look for a job field with the most money or the best job outlook, but for the job that I would enjoy to do because the world needs someone who’s passionate about what they do.Read full review

while reading Wild at Heart
My husband has been reading a book of late.. and I feel it's a "must read" for all "civilized" men in the world today. Today's men are bored and honestly yes us women have noticed.. we're bored too... Here is a short excerpt of the first chapter in the book. ".... And why I linger here still, letting the old bull get away. My hunt, you see, has little to do with elk. I knew that before I came. There is something else I am after, out here in the wild. I am searching for an even more elusive prey... something that can only be found through the help of the wilderness. I am looking for my heart. " " Adventure, with all its requisite danger and wildness, is a deeply spiritual longing written into the soul of a man. The masculine heart needs a place where nothing is prefabricated, modular, nonfat, zip lock, franchised, on-line, or microwavable. Where there are no deadlines, cell phones, or committee meetings. Where there is room for the soul. Where, finally, the geography around us corresponds to the geography of our heart. Look at the heroes of the biblical text: moses does not encounter the living God at the mall. He finds Him (or actually is found BY Him) somewhere out in the deserts of Sinai, a long way from the comforts of Egypt. The same is true of Jacob, who has his wrestling match with God not on the living room sofa but in a wadi somewhere east of the Jabbok, in Mesopotamia. Where did the great prophet Elijah go to recover his strength? To the wild. As did John the Baptist, and his cousin Jesus, who is led by the Spirit into the wilderness. " This book goes on to discuss the many reasons man has been emasculated by society under the well intentioned label of "civilization." But as we have often said "The road to Hell is paved with those good intentions." I myself see these amazing things squelched in my own husband. His wanderlust, passion and his adventure has been replaced with fear, duty and obligations. Being military might explain a lot of that but society is to blame for even their expectations. The only thing stopping most men is fear. Fear of revile, fear of rejection and fear of cost. How much does it really cost to hike in the woods or to close your eyes at the top of a hill and fly in the wind? How much is therapy sessions and mind bending civility costing? How about Viagra and the other things that men need now to become a man for short terms so they can be a woman the rest of their time? The others are situational who would revile or reject a man that enjoys being a man? People who own those veneer boxes... and this I answer with a question. Why would you want that veneer box??? I've read only a small portion of this book and I've already fallen in love with it.. I'll keep you posted and will probably write more uncivilized politically incorrect things in the near future.Read full review
