The first few chapters were kinda slow and boring, mostly because they were telling me stuff I already knew. And it seemed like they were getting redundant, like the author kept finding new ways to make the same point over and over. It got a lot better once I got farther into the book where I found stuff I could use. My favorite chapter was chapter 9, I think, titled "The Strategy." that chapter was extremely helpful, especially in overcoming temptation. That chapter redeemed the rest of the book, I didn't mind having to read the beginning because if I had stopped, I wouldn't have been able to read this chapter.
Hey, you. Yes, you, Gideon. Remember when someone told you that what you underline in books is incredibly personal and shows your heart? That is true. But for this book, it's better if I don't tell you what you liked best about it. In a couple years, when you're ready, you'll probably come back to this book and find something different than you found when you were 27. It will renew you. Trust me.
In Wild at Heart, 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.
