Wild at Heart - Unabridged Audiobook on CD
By John Eldredge / Oasis Audio Llc
Every man was once a boy. And every little boy has 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: dreams of being rescued of 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 this audiobook, 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. Read by Kelly Ryan Dolan. Unabridged. 9 CDs.
