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.

Critic reviews

"The exceptional writing and ideational balance (and a sensitive interpretation by Kelly Dolan) make this a compelling effort to integrate the hero's gritty nature with the public good." (AudioFile)

Becoming a Manly Christian

A great view of manhood from a Christian perspective. Well worth the time to read or listen. Especially for young men and people who question their faith.

Life Awakening and Changing

This is the foundational book for the modern man. I am 45 and wish I would have read this as a teenager. I have given it to my teen son and will attempt to persuade my 70 year old father to read it. It’s never too late as long as we’re still breathing.

John Eldredge’s Best Book and an Essential Read to a Redemption Seeker

John Eldredge is a long-time Christian author who blends stories of every-day life, struggle, mystery, mistakes, forgiveness, basically the themes of all the best mythic stories and those of The Bible and proclaims while proving that God is an active friend to all those who want a change, an adventurous life, a whole-hearted life and a romantic life too that God has given the option to every man to make: either go with what the world has to offer in a risk-free, predicable, safe, and controlled existence, or live and love free in God’s grace and forgiveness of all our wrongdoings to live a life that will be one for us and those who love will always remember in the great hereafter. Won’t you join me, and this book, to be a band of brothers, Wild at Heart? God bless you today and all the days of your life.

Having had a bad relationship with my own manliness growing up, this book spoke to me on a very deep level.
