New Releases by John Eldredge

New York Times bestselling author John Eldredge reveals the path of the "ordinary mystic," and invites readers into the refuge of experiencing deep, lasting, real communion with Jesus. In this present age we are all becoming disciples of the Internet. We are addicted to distraction. We idolize our instant access to a never-ending avalanche of information. We think we''re finally holding the keys to a better life. But if that''s true, why are we wrestling with ever-increasing levels of anxiety, dissatisfaction, and despair? The fact is, we live in a world of weary, skeptical pragmatism--and it''s keeping us from experiencing the God we are dying without. John Eldredge presents a powerful alternative to the soulless, disenchanted world we find ourselves living in today: the path of the ordinary mystic. Readers who join Eldredge on this journey will regain childlike faith in the reality of God''s constant, available presence to those who seek him; discover the biblical foundations for the mystical tradition in Christianity; and learn practices, habits, and prayers that will transform their ability to hear the voice of Jesus in their day-to-day lives. Every human yearns to return to Eden, to a state of unbroken communion with the God who created us for adventure and intimacy with him. The mystic is awake to the truth that God is still with us--and we experience the refuge of his powerful, healing presence if we learn to open our hearts to him.

Embark on a spiritual journey to cut through the murk of modern life and rediscover a deeply experiential relationship with Jesus Christ. Do you feel like you''re living your day-to-day at a distance from the rich and nourishing intimacy with God that you long for? The Christian life is meant to be experiential. Our faith is meant to be felt. It should fill us with wonder. And yet we live in a world of weary, skeptical pragmatism. Our digital age has conditioned us to expect immediate answers and crippled our ability to entertain mystery and experience the healing power of Jesus. In this this five-session video Bible study (video access included), John Eldredge shows you how to develop deep, everyday habits—rooted in ancient Christian practices—that will help restore your faith and experience real intimacy with God. This study guide has everything you need for a full Bible study experience, including: The study guide itself—with discussion and personal reflection questions, video notes, and a leader''s guide. An individual access code to stream all five video sessions online (DVD also available separately).

The voice catches us off guard, whether in the middle of the day or the dead of night. It is the voice of God, wooing our hearts with words that seem too good to be true. Listen to me—there is something missing. You long to be in a love affair, a great adventure. You were made for more. You know it. Yet another voice, often louder, competes for our attention. The Message of the Arrows has assaulted us since childhood. The enemy knows if he can get us to lose heart, we will lose everything. How are we to make sense of these terribly opposed messages? The Sacred Romance pulls the curtain back on the cosmic drama that God’s been weaving since before time began. In this updated companion to the book, you will discover: How your current life is far too safe compared to the larger story God has for you; How to know God as the Great Romancer and embrace his love for you; How the enemy tries to destroy you through the Message of the Arrows; and How to enter into and remain in the Sacred Romance with Jesus. The Sacred Romance Workbook is a guided journey filled with questions, exercises, journaling ideas, and explorations of the arts that will lead you into the very heart of God.

Find the peace, purpose, and connection you crave by slowing down, asking questions, and deepening your relationship with God or discovering it for the first time. We have lost touch with our hearts. In the pursuit of efficiency, success, and the busyness of our lives we have only been left with emptiness and longing. If you''re feeling lost, disconnected, wounded, broken, or if your heart just aches for something more, you’ve come to the right place. In The Sacred Romance, bestselling authors John Eldredge and Brent Curtis invite you to join them as they explore the greatest love of our lives: a relationship with the God who pursues us. The Sacred Romance will guide you through the journey of getting to know yourself and your creator better, asking you: What is this restlessness and emptiness I feel, sometimes after years into my Christian journey? How will my spiritual life touch the rest of my life? What is it that is set so deeply in my heart, that will not leave me alone? When did I stop listening to God’s leading? The Sacred Romance is a journey of the heart. It is a journey full of intimacy, adventure, and beauty that will guide you to your fondest memories, greatest loves, noblest achievements, and even deepest hurts. But the reward is worth the risk as you enter into God’s story and accept His invitation to experience His unfathomable love.

Nu renunta la lupta in perioadele dificile ale vietii! Dorinta de a fi fericiti, de a avea o viata implinita, este inerenta fiecarui om, deoarece Dumnezeu a sadit-o in noi. Lucrurile se complica insa atunci cand viata pe care am visat-o si ne-o dorim nu seamana cu cea reala. Intre iluziile unei vieti comode si lipsite de provocari pe de o parte, si impactul traumatic al conflictelor armate, al crizelor climatice sau al pandemiilor globale pe de alta parte, simtim o lipsa profunda de liniste, siguranta si fericire. In aceasta perioada, uitam ca Dumnezeu este disponibil in modalitati pe care inca nu le-am explorat! Unul dintre aspectele cele mai provocatoare ale vietii este iubirea fata de Dumnezeu in momentele de suferinta. In astfel de situatii, avem tendinta de a renunta la lupta, simtindu-ne lipsiti de putere. Cu toate acestea, este esential sa ramanem agatati de Dumnezeu, deoarece doar El ne poate ridica de acolo. Folosind Scriptura ca sursa de intelepciune si inspiratie, Rezilient te va ajuta: sa gasesti sursa de incredere in „raul vietii“ pe care Dumnezeu il promite poporului Sau, care ofera alinare si vindecare in cele mai grele momente din viata; sa cultivi rabdarea cu tine insuti, deoarece, in procesul de recuperare autentica dupa o trauma spirituala si emotionala, este esential sa-ti acorzi timpul si atentia de care ai nevoie; sa stabilesti un set de strategii si obiective pentru a dezvolta rezilienta in viata ta de zi cu zi. Ducem o lupta pentru sufletul nostru, iar provocarea prezentata in aceasta carte este de a ramane increzatori in puterea lui Dumnezeu si de a nu renunta niciodata la lupta pentru o viata implinita. DESPRE AUTOR JOHN ELDREDGE este autor, consilier si profesor. Este, de asemenea, presedintele Ransomed Heart [Inimii rascumparate], o misiune menita sa-i ajute pe oameni sa descopere inima lui Dumnezeu si sa invete sa traiasca in Imparatia lui Dumnezeu. Crescut in suburbiile din Los Angeles, Eldredge si-a petrecut verile din copilarie la ferma de vite a bunicului sau, in estul Oregonului. John si-a cunoscut sotia, pe Stasi, in liceu, dar relatia lor de dragoste a inceput dupa ce fiecare a ajuns la credinta in Cristos. Eldredge a obtinut un master in consiliere de la Colorado Christian University. John si Stasi locuiesc in Colorado Springs cu cei trei fii ai lor. Este pasionat de frumusetea naturii, de Shakespeare, de vanatoarea cu arcul si orice are de-a face cu aventura, poezia, baschetul, pescuitul cu musca, escaladari si mult prea multe altele pentru a le putea mentiona pe toate. Printre cartile lui publicate in limba romana se numara: Inima neinfricata, Muta muntii, Captivanta (impreuna cu Stasi) si Vanatoarea de lei (impreuna cu Sam). Rezilient este un ghid valoros care ne indruma sa-L avem pe Isus in centrul vietii noastre, constientizand ca in El gasim sursa puterii si a vindecarii inimii si a vietii noastre. Cu o abordare care atinge sensibilitatea cititorului, Rezilient este o carte cu un subiect foarte potrivit pentru generatia zilelor noastre. Intr-o maniera empatica si cu onestitate, Eldredge se angajeaza in abordarea problemelor complexe si a traumelor pe care le-am indurat cu totii la un moment dat. Autorul recunoaste importanta acordata acestor traume si indeamna la aducerea lor in fata lui Isus, in cautarea eliberarii vindecatoare. In egala masura, el subliniaza ca indrumarea divina si vindecarea spirituala se pot dezvalui pe masura ce inimile noastre se angajeaza in rugaciune sincera si dezvoltand noi obiceiuri sanatoase in viata de zi cu zi. In contextul atat de fragil si nesigur al zilelor pe care le traim intr-o societate atat de polarizata, ne confruntam cu o lipsa acuta de pace, fericire si putere, dar Rezilient dezvaluie o cale autentica de recuperare si rezilienta cu ajutorul lui Isus Insusi. Exploreaza adancurile libertatii si ale puterii pe care Cristos le ofera celor care cred in El. Pentru a prospera in fata provocarilor si haosului lumii, un spirit rezilient este esential. APRECIERI Cu eleganta si subtilitate, cartea Rezilient a autorului si a consilierului crestin John Eldredge este o adevarata invelitoare pentru sufletele noastre. Cu maiestrie, autorul exploreaza tema universala a dorintei noastre intrinsece ca lucrurile sa fie remediate. Mai exact, toti tanjim dupa Eden. Survenind in urma pandemiei devastatoare de COVID-19, cartea trateaza ranile si durerile provocate de izolare, o experienta comuna pentru multi dintre noi. Cu o profunzime impresionanta, Eldredge adreseaza, de asemenea, importanta unei relatii spirituale profunde cu Dumnezeu, o conexiune care ne sustine in perseverarea noastra. * Rezilient se releva ca o lectura cu o valoare remarcabila in vremurile de restriste. Prin intelepciunea si perspectiva sa pertinenta, autorul ne indruma catre o reintoarcere la sursa autentica a puterii noastre, in persoana lui Isus Cristos. Prin aceasta calauzire inspirata, el aduce in discutie nu numai impactul pandemiei globale, dar si profetiile referitoare la vremurile din urma. * Cu o abordare care atinge sensibilitatea cititorului, Rezilient este o carte cu un subiect foarte potrivit pentru generatia zilelor noastre. Intr-o maniera empatica si cu onestitate, Eldredge se angajeaza in abordarea problemelor complexe pe care pandemia le-a scos la iveala si a traumelor pe care le-am indurat cu totii. Cartea recunoaste importanta acordata acestor traume si indeamna la aducerea lor in fata lui Isus, in cautarea eliberarii vindecatoare. In egala masura, autorul subliniaza ca indrumarea divina si vindecarea spirituala se pot dezvalui pe masura ce inimile noastre se angajeaza in rugaciune sincera si dezvoltam noi obiceiuri sanatoase in viata de zi cu zi. * Rezilient se dovedeste a fi o scufundare profunda in adancul sufletului, o calatorie care aduce lumina asupra iubirii si conexiunii autentice cu Isus. Intr-o maniera blanda si profunda, cartea dezvaluie dorintele si vulnerabilitatile noastre, care au la baza oboseala si trauma. Intr-o maniera incitanta, ea afirma promisiunile divine si adevarurile fundamentale din interiorul fiecarui individ. Pana la urma, Rezilient reprezinta un ghid inestimabil, ce ne invata cum sa-L avem pe Isus in centrul vietii noastre, intelegand ca in El gasim izvorul de putere si vindecare, atat de necesar in aceasta era tumultuoasa.

In Wild at Heart, bestselling author John Eldredge thrust a generation of men, young and old, toward a journey to recover true masculinity?the soul of a man as God designed him. He reminded men they needed adventure in their lives—in their work, in their love, and their spiritual lives—and showed how God designed them to be dangerous. Sadly, most men today have abandoned these 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. The Wild at Heart Field Manual, which corresponds chapter-by-chapter with the book, helps men understand how God wants to heal these deep wounds from earlier years that take away their confidence and, in some case, their masculinity. Men will discover that deep within their heart is a longing for a battle to fight, an adventure to live, and a beauty to rescue—because that is how God created them.

Daca ai avea permisiunea sa faci ceea ce iti doresti cu adevarat, ce ai face? Nu iti pune problema cum vei face ceea ce iti propui; asta ti-ar reteza din start toate visurile. Cum? este o intrebare a necredintei. Cum apartine de domeniul lui Dumnezeu. Daca ai putea sa faci ceea ce ti-ai dorit dintotdeauna, care ar fi acel lucru? Fiecare barbat a fost odata un copil. Si fiecare baiat are visuri, visuri mari: viseaza sa fie erou pentru cineva, sa-i al-toiasca pe baietii rai, sa faca ispravi mari si sa o salveze pe Frumoasa lui din orice primejdie. Si fiecare fata are visuri: sa fie eliberata din castelul captivitatii de Printul ei, sa traiasca cea mai extraordinara poveste de iubire si sa se stie Frumo-asa visurilor lui. Dar ce se intampla cu aceste visuri cand ne facem mari? Daca esti familiar cu ce se intampla in majoritatea bisericilor, priveste in jur si pune ti intrebarea: Ce inseamna sa fii deopotriva barbat si crestin? Nu este nicio indoiala: Trebuie sa recunosti ca astazi crestinul este… plictisit. In Inima neinfricata, John Eldredge te invita sa-ti descoperi inima modelata dupa asemanarea unui Dumnezeu plin de pasiune si sa-L intal-nesti pe Dumnezeul care a creat-o si a pus-o in tine si care ti-a facut aceasta chemare: VINO, TRAIESTE CE TI-AM PREGATIT!

John Eldredge enseña a los hombres que Dios quiere completar su crecimiento a través de seis etapas de masculinidad y equipa a los padres para que puedan enseñar esto mismo a sus hijos varones. Hay un camino que conduce a la auténtica masculinidad, andado por los hombres que nos han precedido, hijos que siguen los pasos de sus padres, generación tras generación. Hay peligros en el camino, incluso catástrofes, una razón más para confiar en la orientación del Padre que ha paso por ese lugar. Pero en una época en la que los verdaderos padres son escasos, ¿cómo puedes encontrar el camino correcto? ¿Cómo mantenerte alejado de los peligros?

New York Times bestselling author John Eldredge offers group members a simple but life-changing study on the topic on heaven.

New York Times bestselling author John Eldredge offers readers a breathtaking look into God’s promise for a new heaven and a new earth. This revolutionary book about our future is based on the simple idea that, according to the Bible, heaven is not our eternal home--the New Earth is. As Jesus says in the gospel of Matthew, the next chapter of our story begins with "the renewal of all things," by which he means the earth we love in all its beauty, our own selves, and the things that make for a rich life: music, art, food, laughter and all that we hold dear. Everything shall be renewed "when the world is made new." More than anything else, how you envision your future shapes your current experience. If you knew that God was going to restore your life and everything you love any day; if you believed a great and glorious goodness was coming to you--not in a vague heaven but right here on this earth--you would have a hope to see you through anything, an anchor for your soul, "an unbreakable spiritual lifeline, reaching past all appearances right to the very presence of God" (Hebrews 6:19). Most Christians (most people for that matter) fail to look forward to their future because their view of heaven is vague, religious, and frankly boring. Hope begins when we understand that for the believer nothing is lost. Heaven is not a life in the clouds; it is not endless harp-strumming or worship-singing. Rather, the life we long for, the paradise Adam and Eve knew, is precisely the life that is coming to us. And that life is coming soon.

Most Christians miss the ultimate hope for their future because their views of heaven are vague, religious . . . and, frankly, boring. Hope begins when we understand that for the believer, noting is lost. Heaven is not an endless life of harp strumming and worship singing in the clouds. Rather, the life we long for – the paradise Adam and Eve knew – is precisely the life that is coming to us. And that life is coming soon. In this five-session study, John Eldredge explores the revolutionary idea that according to the Bible, heaven is not our eternal home – the New Earth is. Jesus said the next chapter of our story begins with “the renewal of all things” (Matthew 19:28), by which he meant the earth we love, ourselves, and all the things that make for a rich life: music, art, food, and laughter. God’s promise is that everything shall be renewed “when the world is made new.” Part devotional, part adventure story, part field manual, this study will help you see the glorious future coming to you and provide “hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure” (Hebrews 6:19). Ideal for individual or group use, this guide includes personal reflection questions, targeted excerpts from All Things New, a Big Ideas overview, small-group discussion questions, and group exercises. A leader’s guide is also included for those facilitating a group. Sessions include: The Hope of Renewal Creation Made New Your Story Told Rightly What We’ll Do in the New Earth The Power of Our Hope Designed for use with the All Things New Video Study (9780310087656).

¿CUÁL SERÁ L A GRAN ESPERANZA QUE SOSTIENE SU VIDA?Este libro revolucionario acerca de nuestro futuro se basa en la sencilla idea de que, según la Biblia, el cielo no es nuestro hogar eterno, sino la tierra nueva. Tal como Jesús afirma en el Evangelio de Mateo, el próximo capítulo de nuestra historia comienza con «la renovación de todas las cosas», refiriéndose a la tierra que amamos en toda su belleza, nuestro propio ser y las cosas que enriquecen la vida: la música, el arte, la comida, las risas y todo lo que atesoramos. Todo ha de serrenovado «cuando la tierra sea hecha nueva».La manera en que imagina su futuro determina su experiencia actual más que cualquier otra cosa. Si estuviera seguro que Dios restaurará, en cualquier momento, su vida y todo lo que disfruta; si estuviera seguro que recibirá una bendición grande y gloriosa, no en el cielo sino aquí en esta tierra, tendría una esperanza que le ayudaría a enfrentar cualquier circunstancia, una certeza en el alma, «la cual tenemos como segura y firme ancla del alma, y que penetra hasta dentro del velo» (Hebreos 6.19).La mayoría de los cristianos no esperan el futuro con ansias porque sus ideas acerca del cielo son confusas, religiosas y, francamente, aburridas. La esperanza surge cuando comprendemos que para el creyente nada está perdido. El cielo no es una vida en las nubes; no consiste en canciones de adoración perpetuas. Más bien, la vida que anhelamos, el paraíso que Adán y Eva conocieron, es precisamente la vida que está preparada para nosotros.Y ESA VIDA VIENE PRONTO.

Jesus said, “I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” That’s the offer of Christianity, from God himself. Jesus touched people, and they changed: the blind had sight, the lame walked, the deaf heard, the dead were raised. To be touched by God, in other words, is to be restored, to be made all God means us to be. That is what Christianity promises to do?make us whole, set us free, and bring us fully alive. In this revised and updated study guide, bestselling author John Eldredge takes you deeper into the secret of finding that life, identifying the battle over your heart, and embracing all God has in store for you. Packed with questions, stories, and discussion topics, this study guide features: The Big Ideas: The eye-opening central truths of each chapter Mythic Parables: Classic stories from Scripture as well as fairy tales, old and new Heart Monitors: Barometers for evaluating your feelings, struggles, and passions Leader’s Guide: A new leader’s guide to help you guide groups through the material No matter what you’ve known so far, an abundant and glorious new life is waiting for you—if you open the eyes of your heart and see.
