John Eldredge, director of Ransomed Heart Ministries, wrote these books (and was joined by his wife, Stasi, in Captivating) to empower Christian women and men of all ages to recapture the dreams of their childhood and to find the fulfillment of those dreams in our God. But what happens to those dreams when we grow up?”* 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. 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. So, instead of asking what you think you ought to do to become a better man, John asks us in this study, “What makes you come alive? What stirs your heart?” Join John and his band of brothers as they share stories of the deep wounds of their earlier years that took away their confidence and-in some cases-their masculinity.“Every man was once a boy. Sadly, most men today have abandoned these 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. Simply look at the dreams and desires written in the heart of every boy: to be a hero, to be a warrior, and to live a life of adventure and risk. He reveals how God designed men to be dangerous. in our work, in our love, and our spiritual lives. Have you had it with the pressure to be a nice guy? In this updated edition of the bestselling classic, Wild at Heart, author John Eldredge reminds men we need adventure in our lives.
