What strikes me about Jesus is that he is a remarkably true person he never changes his personality to fit in with whatever crowd he finds himself. He is simply himself, and he never plays to his audience.

More quotes by John Eldredge
Every boy, in his journey to become a man, takes an arrow in the center of his heart, in the place of his strength. Because the wound is rarely discussed and even more rarely healed, every man carries a wound. And the wound is nearly always given by his father.
John Eldredge
Caring for our own hearts isn't selfishness it's how we begin to love.
John Eldredge
So long as man remains no real threat to the Enemy, Satan's line to him is 'You're fine'. But after you do take sides, it becomes 'Your heart is bad and you know it'.
John Eldredge
The true story of every person in this world is not the story you see, the external story. The true story of each person is the journey of his or her heart.
John Eldredge
If only Jesus' followers shared his personality. That one shift alone would correct so many of the ridiculous and horrifying things that pass for popular Christianity.
John Eldredge
Mary had Joseph. Esther had Mordecai. Ruth had Boaz. We will not become the women God intends us to be without the guidance, counsel, wisdom, strength, and love of good men in our lives.
John Eldredge
Am I really a man? Have I got what it takeswhen it counts?
John Eldredge
Story is the language of the heart.
John Eldredge
We are made in the image of God we carry within us the desire for our true life of intimacy and adventure. To say we want less than that is to lie.
John Eldredge
The point is the love story. We live in a love story in the midst of war.
John Eldredge
A man's calling is written on his true heart, and he discovers it when he enters the frontier of his deep desires.
John Eldredge
Adventure, with all its requisite danger and wildness, is a deeply spiritual longing written into the soul of man.
John Eldredge
God endowed you with a glory when he created you, a glory so deep and mythic that all creation pales in comparison.
John Eldredge
We don't live in the Garden. We live far from Eden. Every life is full of heartaches. Every life, frankly, is unspeakably sad.
John Eldredge
Moses does not encounter the living God at the mall. He finds Him (or is found by Him) somewhere out in the deserts of Sinai, a long way from the comforts of Egypt... Where did the great prophet Elijah go to recover his strength? To the wild. As did John the Baptist, and his cousin, Jesus, Who is led by the Spirit into the wilderness.
John Eldredge
In the end, it doesn’t matter how well we have performed or what we have accomplished—a life without heart is not worth living.
John Eldredge
Desire reveals design, and design reveals destiny.
John Eldredge
Most Christians are still living with an Old Testament view of their heart. Jeremiah 17:9 says, 'My heart is deceitfully wicked.' No, it's not. Not after the work of Christ, because the promise of the new covenant is a new heart.
John Eldredge
The most dangerous man on earth is the man who has reckoned with his own death. All men die few men ever really live.
John Eldredge
It takes great courage to be vulnerable. It takes enormous strength to be a real woman.
