Description:

Helping men rediscover their masculine heart, this guide to understanding Christian manhood and Christian men offers a refreshing break from the chorus of voices urging men to be more responsible, reliable, dutiful… and dead. 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 book, now available in trade paper, 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.

this book really held my interest actually I've read and reread it 3 times. It contains explanations and words of wisdom people can understand and use in everyday life

1Like St Crispin's speech, but with no point  Nov 14, 2009
I got a 2nd-hand copy from a used bookstore, and I'll be returning it when I get a chance. The book has a decent flow and is easy to digest, but the problem is that there's rather very little to digest at all. Most of the book feels like a coach giving a speech to his players before a game: There are a lot of battle cries, but not much else. There are some wonderful segments that make you think of the social differences between men and women, but that's only because the author flirted with the topic. He never reached the core of anything, focusing instead on poetic imagery and a few personal examples. The most frustrating aspect is that, when he did get close to forming a solid point, he would instead throw out an often-suspect opinion and claim it as fact. On at least two occasions, I couldn't help but feel that he backed up an opinion with an out-of-contest verse from the bible.

The book fell far short of my expectations. And quite frankly, I feel that the author did no research at all before writing. This book is simply his opinion piece, and it has little merit beyond that. Oddly enough, even though this book was written for men, there are a few sections that would be more useful for wives to read in order to better understand their husbands. Aside from that, I cannot recommend this book.
