    About this audiobook

    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.

    • 5/5
      Verschiedene Stadien hat ein Mann zu durchlaufen, etliche Bewährungen zu bestehen, um eine reife und ausgewogene Persönlichkeit zu entwickeln: Geliebter Sohn, Abenteurer, Kämpfer, Liebhaber, König, Weiser. Dies habe Gott - aus der Sicht des Autors - so angelegt. Ob man(n) wirklich auf ein solches Programm festgelegt ist, sei dahingestellt. Insgesamt macht das Buch aber Sinn, gerade weil es nicht immer "politisch korrekt" ist; die Aussagen und Denkanstösse haben Tiefgang und lassen einen nicht unberührt. Einziger Negativpunkt ist, dass der Autor im Unterschied etwa zu Richard Rohr nicht offenlegt, woher sein Ansatz (vermutlich) stammt, nämlich die Archetypen aus der Psychologie C.G. Jungs - vielleicht aus Angst, seine meist evangelikalen Leser vor den Kopf zu stossen?
    • 5/5
      That was a blessing! One of the rear books that really makes a difference! God bless you John!
    • 5/5
      Captivating read that leaves your heart stirred, and tagging at your spirit.
    • 4/5
      A description of the stages of a man's journey through life and how moving from one stage to another affect the rest of his life. This is a sequel to "Wild at Heart" but they can be read independant of each other. I enjoyed this book and found it to be true in my life journey.
