What do you all think of John Eldredge's books. I read Wild at Heart over the weekend, and it just spoke volumes to me. It really hit home. I went ahead this morning and bought some more of his books.

However, I was looking on the net reading some reviews, and many reviewers do not like his writings. However, I really liked this book, and I highly recommend it to anyone.

What do you all think of his works?

I've read Wild at Heart and Waking the Dead, and I just started The Journey of Desire this morning. I love Eldredge's books. I also have The Sacred Romance, but I haven't got around to reading it yet. I love the fresh way of thinking he presents. And whats more, his writing is suprisingly relevant in my life right now. I'll have to see some of those reviews, because I'd be interested to know what faults anyone could find with these books.

Hey guys,

I am thinking about getting and reading "Wild at Heart". I did a search on the internet for reviews and found several that thought Eldredge's book had some unbiblical ideas.

Those of you that have read the book what do you think?

Can you be specific? What are the alleged unbiblical ideas?

I don't remember noticing anything that concerned me.
