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
Falling in love with God is the most important thing a person can do.
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
Henri Nouwen once asked Mother Teresa for spiritual direction. Spend one hour each day in adoration of your Lord, she said, and never do anything you know is wrong. Follow this and you'll be fine.
John Eldredge
To be in theater you have to be a kind of psychologist, for you're always trying to understand character and motives.
John Eldredge
You live in a world at war. Spiritual attack must be a category you think in or you will misunderstand more than half of what happens in your marriage.
John Eldredge
It takes great courage to be vulnerable. It takes enormous strength to be a real woman.
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
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
How can it be broad to be the same thing to everyone and narrow to be everything to someone? No, a woman’s function is laborious, but because it is gigantic, not because it is minute. (What’s Wrong with the World)
John Eldredge
But a wound unfelt is a wound unhealed.
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
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
Adventure, with all its requisite danger and wildness, is a deeply spiritual longing written into the soul of man.
John Eldredge
The meaning of our lives is revealed through experiences that at first seem at odds with each other--moments we wish would never end and moments we wish had never begun.
John Eldredge
It is the thoughts and intents of the heart that shape a person's life.
John Eldredge
To find God, you must look with all your heart. To remain present to God, you must remain present to your heart. To hear his voice, you must listen with all your heart. To love him, you must love with all your heart. You cannot be the person God meant you to be, and you cannot live the life he meant you to live, unless you live from the heart.
John Eldredge
The story of your life is the story of the long and brutal assault on your heart by the one who knows what you could be and fears it.
John Eldredge
Caring for your heart is also how you protect your relationship with God... [The heart] is where we commune with him. It is where we hear his voice. Most of the folks I know who have never heard God speak to them are the same folks who live far from their hearts.
John Eldredge
Desire, both the whispers and the shouts, is the map we have been given to find the only life worth living.
John Eldredge
We think you'll find that every woman in her heart of hearts longs for three things: to be romanced, to play an irreplaceable role in a great adventure, and to unveil beauty. That's what makes a woman come alive.
