I would like to recommend a very good christian book.

Wild at Heart
By John Eldredge
Ransomed Heart Ministries

This book is a great book for a husband / boyfriend....well a man that seems to be a bit lost in life and wants to know why. I was there a year ago. It explains in a christian point of view about men and how the relate to back to creation and how god designed us and also by the fall of adam and eve.

This book can be an extreme eye opener but, in my opinion, it has opened my eyes the way they should be about the world.

My wife gave this too me as a christmas present last year and was truely a blessing. I have yet to complete it but it really has given me a kick start about life again. There is also a workbook that goes along with it. There is also a CD version of it as well for those long commutes back and forth to work.

I'm sure this book will help even the women out there struggling with relationship with your man. Try it out. I highly recommend it.

Hi familyman6-Nick, This is a great book. Even for women to get some insight into their husband, boyfiend. I was lucky enough to read this as a newlywed wife, and it sure
helped to understand how a guy ticks. A great read and worth the time & money. Peace -Anne

Hi familyman6-Nick,
Would you recommend this book to young men who are not married yet, and currently in a good relationship? Just wondering if it would be a good read for college age men, simply as a Christian viewpoint for relationships in general.

Hi Everyone, Nick has not been with us since before Christmas. I wish he'd come back. As far as the book, yes it can be for any men. It's good to know lifeisbetter that you say it can be for women too? Did you read the whole thing? I've heard many men speak highly of it.

I would echo what others have said about Wild at Heart. It has been a life changing book for me. The first time I read it I thought he was talking about me, Like he knew me. It tells you, from a christian point of view, what God given masculinity looks like and what it means to be a man. It also talks about finding your heart and the desires of your heart, the things that make you come alive. These are things that were never taught to me and so it was very eye opening to me. Another book of John Eldridge that I highly recommend is Waking the Dead. I am about halfway through and it has been exceptional. This book focuses even more on the heart. About how through Christ we have been given a new heart(Ez. 36:26-27). That our hearts are not bad like I have thought all my life. It is very good!
