Read by the author.

Discover how to fulfill the truest and deepest longings of your heart when you encounter the powerful and healing presence of Jesus.

New York Times best-selling author John Eldredge reveals the path of the "ordinary mystic," and invites you into the refuge of experiencing deep, lasting, real communion with Jesus.

In this present age, we are all becoming disciples of the Internet. We are addicted to distraction. We idolize our instant access to a never-ending avalanche of information. We think we're finally holding the keys to a better life. But if that's true, why are we wrestling with ever-increasing levels of anxiety, dissatisfaction, and despair? The fact is, we live in a world of weary, skeptical pragmatism—and it's keeping us from experiencing the God we are dying without.

In Experience Jesus. Really. John Eldredge guides you to a beautiful alternative to the soulless, disenchanted existence you find yourself living in today: the path of the “ordinary mystic.” To walk this path means to experience the daily presence of God, as did David, Daniel, Esther, Isaiah, Christ's disciples, and Paul… all the way back to Adam and Eve in Eden. When you join John on this journey, you will find stories, practices, and prayers to help you:

• Recover your capacity to believe again
• Take refuge in the mighty presence of God that surrounds you all the time
• Discover the exquisite comfort of actual communion with Jesus every day
• Connect with ancient, biblical ways to heal your soul, protect your family, and revive your faith
• Learn practices, habits, and prayers that will transform your ability to hear the voice of Jesus in your day-to-day life

Every human yearns to return to Eden, to a state of unbroken communion with the God who created us for adventure and intimacy with him. The mystic is awake to the truth that God is still with us--and we experience the refuge of his powerful, healing presence if we learn to open our hearts to him. This book is your invitation to experience the everyday refuge, strength, and wonder available to the friends of Jesus.

Life changing

Thank you so much for writing this book. I am forever grateful. God bless you and your family!

Life infused

This has prepared me for the spiritual defense of my home and body. I love this, have recommended it to so many people already! Blessed is this effort, I felt so blessed with the contents. John I’m glad I discovered you!

He confirmed so much that I have experienced and couldn’t put words to.

I liked his insight, the prayers are immensely important and transformative. The chapter on Jesus helping the young girl was personal and so very helpful to me with the trauma I experienced as a child. Can’t thank you enough Mr. Eldridge.

Spiritual growth is at its core

Every one of his books is like a drink of spring water when I’m in the desert and this one is no different. I love his narration. His voice is very calming and clear. This book brought me closer to God and anything that brings me closer to God is worth my time.

Ordinary Mystics

I am trying to not overstate or be hyperbolic, but this is a true blue paradigm shift. This past year or so has been an eye opening one, where I have become increasingly more aware of the Unseen Realm and our part on it.

Some of what I've read and have been taught was fascinating, but I didn't really know what to do with it. Information without transformation.

John Eldredge's book here tells you everything to do about it, from becoming an Ordinary Mystic to engaging on spiritual warfare in Christ's authority. Understand that I've been a Christian and a minister for years and much of the teachings in this book are considered fringe or for the Saints of the church. This is not correct. John teaches in a pastoral and authoritative manner. He's like the spiritual father many of us Disciples of the Internet have never experienced. I don't usually double dip when it comes to books, but this is one case where it's highly recommended. The audiobook has additional riffs and teachings on the written content. The text could easily be highlighted through and through.

Please read this book, please listen to it, and please take your time!

This will be a book referred back for years to come, I'm sure.

Like sitting at the foot of our Lord! So much in this book!

I will read this book over and over. I’ve listened to chapters 11 and 12 at least 4 times. Gleaning the spiritual knowledge and training in these chapters. I was able to close the chapter on some areas of my life. Finally! After walking thru these chapters. I have experienced-God-really. Highly recommend this book.

Excellent

Can’t put it down… and it keep coming back for more! I love this book it’s perfect for longtime believers or beginners.
