This dramatic retelling of the gospel illuminates the unique role we can play in the amazing story God is telling. Sure, good things happen, sometimes beautiful things. But tragic things happen too. What does it mean? We find ourselves in the middle of a story that is sometimes wonderful, sometimes awful, usually a confusing mixture of both, and we haven’t a clue how to make sense of it all. No wonder we keep losing heart. We need to know the rest of the story. For when we were born, we were born into the midst of a great story begun before the dawn of time. A story of adventure, of risk and loss, heroism . . . and betrayal. A story where good is warring against evil, danger lurks around every corner, and glorious deeds wait to be done. Think of all those stories you’ve ever loved. There’s a reason they stirred your heart. They’ve been trying to tell you about the true Epic ever since you were young. There is a larger story and you have a crucial role to play.

God designed men to be dangerous, says John Eldredge. Simply look at the dreams and desires written in the heart of every boy: To be a hero, to be a warrior, to live a life of adventure and risk. Sadly, most men abandon those dreams and desires - aided by a Christianity that feels like nothing more than pressure to be a "nice guy." It is no wonder that many men avoid church, and those who go are often passive and bored to death. In this provocative audio book, Eldredge gives women a look inside the true heart of a man and gives men permission to be what God designed them to be - dangerous, passionate, alive and free.

Reveals the beauty and mystery of the feminine soul by showing readers the three core desires of every woman's heart--to be romanced, to play an irreplaceable role in a grand adventure, and to unveil beauty--and describes how the feminine heart can be restored. Book available.

Was macht den Mann zum Mann? Drei Jahrzehnte, in denen das Selbstverständnis der Frau im Mittelpunkt des Interesses stand, haben auch das Männerbild - nebenbei - neu definiert: Männer sollten empfindsamer, berechenbarer, kommunikativer sein und zu ihren weiblichen Seiten stehen. Und das Ergebnis: Heute werden die Männer dafür kritisiert, dass sie keine rechten Männer mehr sind. - Wie sieht Männlichkeit aus, die Stärke und Schwäche in gleicher Weise zulässt? - Wie können Männer aus falschen und oberflächlichen Rollen herausfinden? - Und wo gibt es Vorbilder für eine authentische Männlichkeit - jenseits von Machotum und Softie-Welle? John Eldredge zeigt Ursachen für die Krise des männlichen Selbstverständnisses in den westlichen Gesellschaften auf. Und er zeigt konkrete Wege, wie echte Männlichkeit zu finden und wiederzugewinnen ist. "Der Mann ist für ein abenteuerliches Leben geschaffen. Ein Mann wird erst dann wirklich glücklich sein können, wenn in seiner Arbeit, in seiner Liebe und in seinem spirituellen Leben das Abenteuer Einzug hält."
