Synopsis

I can fix it. I don't need directions. I can figure this out on my own. These thoughts that erupt from a man's bravado, from his deep urge to be a real man. Yet underneath this, there is a louder voice countering, You can't. You're not capable. You're weak. Many men-possibly all men-face two looming questions at some point in their life. What does it mean to be a man, and am I one? Way of the Wild Heart reaches out to "unfinished men" trying to understand and live their role as men and fathers. Exploring six biblically based stages, John Eldredge initiates men into a new understanding and ownership of their manhood and equips them to effectively lead their sons to manhood.

I still got a lot out o......more

Goodreads review by Soho_Black on May 16, 2016

I recently read John Eldredge’s “Wild At Heart” and wasn’t terribly impressed. Normally, this would have prevented me from reading any follow up, but I had borrowed both books from a friend and I couldn’t return a book without reading it. This is the only reason I would have found myself reading “Th......more

Goodreads review by Matt on July 29, 2024

Look around at the men of today; Eldredge remarks that many of them are “unfinished and unfathered boys in men’s bodies.” They are either unaware or afraid of the masculine journey and all that it requires, for it can be rightly regarded as the “central mission of life,” requiring all of a man in or......more

Goodreads review by Derrick on June 09, 2023

It's been a while since I read Wild at Heart but I remember that book a bit better. I read this one to get more of an idea of what I should or shouldn't do to raise my own boys. Besides having a right of passage year adn just allowing them to be in their proper stage in life. I think maybe I try to......more
