The Journey We Must Take to Find the Life God Offers. John Eldredge calls men back to a simple and reassuring truth: God is our father. In her new book, Stasi Eldredge meets listeners in their painful realities and offers an invitation to a joy that is defiant in the face of this broken world. Narrated by: Kelly Ryan Dolan. Length: 6 hrs and 40 mins. This joy does not Pollyannaish-ly ignore life's heartache; rather, it insists that sorrow and loss do not have the final say.

We struggle to live a heartfelt life.

Desire: The Journey We Must Take to Find the Life God Offers. We struggle to live a heartfelt life. Worst of all, says Eldredge, the modern church mistakenly teaches its people to kill desire (calling it sin) and replace it with duty or obligation (calling it sanctification). As a result, at best Christians tend to live safe, boring lives of resignation. At worst, their desire eventually breaks out in destructive ways such as substance abuse, affairs, and pornography addictions.

Circumstances thwart our best-laid plans.

In Desire, formerly titled The Journey of Desire, John Eldredge writes of the journey people must take to find the life they prize. And the guide that has been given to all is the desire set deep within, the desire often overlooked or mistaken for something else or even ignored. Contrary to what you may have heard in church, desire is the key to the Christian life," says John Eldredge. When we lose desire, we lose passion for God - and everything else. This book will unlock your God-given passions and desires so that you can find the life God meant you to live.

Can we find a life filled with passion, without being overwhelmed by it?

In Desire, John Eldredge writes, "There is a secret set within each of our hearts. It is the desire for life as it was meant to be." Yet how do we uncover our desires and learn to decipher them? As Eldredge says, "We all share the same dilemma-we long for life and we're not sure where to find it. We wonder if we ever do find it, can we make it last? . . . We must journey to find the life we prize. And the guide we have been given is the desire set deep within, the desire we often overlook or mistake for something else or even choose to ignore. The greatest human tragedy is to give up the search."

Many good people have been told that the path to a holy life requires us to kill our hearts' desires. And call it sanctification.

But in this re-release of one of Eldredge's most inspiring works, we discover that God is the author of our deepest desires. He has given us desire, and he loves to fulfill our hearts' desires. For as the Psalms declare, "Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart" (37:4).

God is calling to you through the desires of your heart.

How you respond will set the course for the rest of your life.

"[Desire] is a profound and winsome call to walk into the heart of God and hear Him sing to your soul about His love. In a world of frenzy and clamor about desire, we often miss the ache that lifts our face to look into His eyes. This book will stir your heart and invite you to know the one desire that captures all passion for His purpose. Drink in this work, and your life will not be the same."

  • John's book Waking the Dead is my favorite. In fact it was so well liked that my Pastor spent five weeks doing a series based on it. He went on to encourage the whole church purchase a copy of it and follow along. After enjoying Waking the Dead so much I started purchasing other books by him. I would have to say this one is next on my list. In Waking the Dead John resurrects the whole idea of living from the heart and not the head. Desire goes on to expand on one way God guides us, through desire. I have loaned my copies of both these books to friends and in each case they thanked me and went on to purchase copies for themselves. John covers a topic overlook by many, keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it come the issues of life.

  • Can't begin to describe how this book draws me closer to the heart of God.

  • I am a great fan of John Eldredge so perhaps this is not a neutral review, but this quiet little book is deep as a well. Since it was written just after his friend's death, the beginning is uncharacteristically depressing. But if you hang in for the ending...WOW! His description of Heaven is the best I've ever read. Forget the harps and halos--this is downright exciting. I've read the book three times now. It's a keeper.

  • john makes a great case for the fact that God created us to live in paradise. When our heart aches for our idea of perfect, that is because we were programmed to live in a perfect environment. We don't need to quiet that desire. We just need to mindful of distractions and imposters while we patiently await the time when our true desire will be fulfilled.

  • This work by Eldridge is an insightful view of the human heart. Living out our God given desires is the key to living a life worth living. Once again, the author strikes a chord too easily buried in ones soul. To not embrace our Godly desires is to deny what makes each of us unique and precious in the Father's eyes. "The glory of God, is man fully alive." And we are not fully alive if desire is not lived for, strived for and fought for. This book is a must read for anyone who wants to LIVE and not just exist.

  • Oh to discover the real reasons we do what we do?? It is a journey but one of self discovery and God discovery. Please read as the world need more people with self awareness!!

  • It's okay to admit tat you desire fulfillment in numerous ways. Keeping in mind it's preparation for what God has in store is the great challenge which requires sober judgment.

  • This CD series is amazing highly recommended this author is really anointed by the Lord his word is true this will touch your heart and away the Steroben test before and I highly recommend this for anybody!
