Man warf ihm alles Mögliche vor - Gesetzesbruch, Umgang mit schlechter Gesellschaft, Trinkgelage. Manche hielten ihn sogar für das personifizierte Böse. Er war eine Bedrohung. Sie mussten ihn einfach aus dem Weg schaffen. Doch diejenigen, die ihn am besten kannten, liebten ihn innig. Er hatte einen feinen Humor. Seine Großzügigkeit war kaum zu fassen. Er sprach von den ungeheuerlichsten Dingen. Und wenn er zornig wurde, zitterten seine Widersacher. Jesus hat sich kein bisschen verändert. Mit offenen Armen nimmt er jeden an, der ihn sucht. Lernen Sie ihn besser kennen - den ungezähmten Messias.

In Geliefde rebel doen Eldredge weg met die tipiese stereotipe sienings oor Jesus soos wat hy in Die ongetemde hart gedoen het om waarheid oor manlikheid te openbaar. In sy gemaklike geselstrant onthul hy die ware Jesus, wat daarvan beskuldig is dat hy misdaad gepleeg het en twyfelagtige vriende gehad het. Hy was so ’n kontroversiële figuur dat mense hom wou doodmaak. Maar baie ander het hom liefgehad. Lesers word genooi om die ryk emosionele lewe van Christus te ontdek. Eldredge help ook die lesers om te sien hoe hulle hierdie ware Jesus kan deelmaak van hul lewens en Hom elke dag te kan ervaar. Hierdie boek sal lesers se aanbiddingslewe verryk en hul intieme verhouding met die ware Jesus verdiep.

Vry om te leef, bied topverkoperskrywer John Eldregde waardevolle riglyne vir ’n lewe waarin lesers nooit weer met hierdie gevoelens en gedagtes hoef te worstel nie. Volgens Eldredge smag ons almal na heiligheid, of ons daarvan bewus is of nie. Ons siele verlang na ’n gevoel van heelheid, en goedheid is noodsaaklik vir hierdie gevoel van heelheid. Ons is gemaak vir goedheid, net soos ons gemaak is om asem te haal en om lief te hê. Om hierdie eindpunt te bereik bespreek Vry om te leef die belangrikheid van heelheid en heiligheid. Jy kan nie ’n ware heelheid beleef sonder ware goedheid nie. Eldredge gaan verder om lesers te wys dat wanneer hulle ontdek wat heiligheid waarlik is, hulle vry sal wees om ’n lewe sonder vrees te lewe!

Este livro é um guia para o processo da iniciação masculina, o antigo caminho que todo menino e todo homem deve percorrer se anseia tornar-se o homem que deseja ser. O caminho pelo qual eles passam a saber que são homens e que são capazes de viver e amar com uma força concentrada e profunda. Vivemos em uma época em que a maioria dos homens (e meninos) está praticamente sem a presença dos pais. Seja qual for a situação, eles não têm junto de si um homem que os faça verdadeiramente passar pelas muitas aventuras, provações, batalhas e experiências de que precisam para que um coração masculino seja moldado dentro deles. Ele se vêem sozinhos para descobrir a vida – e ela é um lugar solitário. Seus medos, angústias, ira, e os seus muitos vícios, vêm todos desse lugar sem pai dentro deles, uma incerteza fundamental no fundo do seu ser. Mas existe um caminho. "Não fomos criados para descobrir a vida por nós mesmos", diz John Eldredge. "Deus quer ser nosso pai". Em Busca do Coração Selvagem revela de que maneira Deus se aproxima de um homem e o acompanha na jornada masculina; como praticamente todos os acontecimentos da vida de um homem podem se juntar para providenciar a iniciação que ele nunca recebeu – e como os pais podem oferecer essa iniciação aos seus filhos.

Reading the Gospels without knowing the personality of Jesus is like watching television with the sound turned off. The result is a dry, two dimensional person doing strange, undecipherable things. In BEAUTIFUL OUTLAW, John Eldredge removes the religious varnish to help readers discover stunning new insights into the humanity of Jesus. He was accused of breaking the law, keeping bad company, heavy drinking. Of being the devil himself. He was so compelling and dangerous they had to kill him. But others loved him passionately. He had a sense of humor. His generosity was scandalous. His anger made enemies tremble. He''d say the most outrageous things. He was definitely not the Jesus of the stained glass. In the author''s winsome, narrative approach, he breaks Jesus out of the typical stereotypes, just as he set masculinity free in his book, Wild at Heart. By uncovering the real Jesus, readers are welcomed into the rich emotional life of Christ. All of the remarkable qualities of Jesus burst like fireworks with color and brilliance because of his humanity. Eldredge goes on to show readers how they can experience this Jesus in their lives every day. This book will quicken readers'' worship, and deepen their intimacy with Jesus.

When Jesus teaches us to pray ''Your Kingdom come, your will be done, '' he means precisely that - that our prayers somehow enable the Kingdom of God to come and his will to be here, in our lives - now. In this book, John Eldredge shows us how to pray with hope and confidence; how to apply prayer to the various dilemmas of life. There are few thoughts as hopeful as the thought that things can be different. And so the disciples said, ''Teach us to pray''
