Book Description:
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, now available in trade paper, 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.

If Christian men are going to become men who are made in the image of God, they must reexamine their idea about who God is and recover their true "wild" hearts. Discovering a Life of Passion, Freedom, and Adventure. Eldredge points out that men are bored; they fear risk, they refuse to pay attention to their deepest desires. He challenges Christian men to return to real masculinity without becoming the fake "macho man". Men often seek value in work, or the conquest of women, the author suggets. He urges men to take time out and come to grips with the "secret longings" of their hearts.
This is geared mainly toward men, but it will also help women understand the effect real masculinity on their relationships with men.
The author uses his outdoor experiences and stories about his family. He points out the only way a man can be all that their heart was made to desire is thru an ongoing, intimate relationship with God." --
