More quotes by John Eldredge
It takes great courage to be vulnerable. It takes enormous strength to be a real woman.
John Eldredge
Christianity has basically communicated to men that the reason God put you on this Earth is to be a good boy. Mind your manners, be a nice guy. That's soul killing!
John Eldredge
Story is the language of the heart.
John Eldredge
The real you is on the side of God against the false self
John Eldredge
Desire reveals design, and design reveals destiny.
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
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.
John Eldredge
Every man is a warrior inside. But the choice to fight is his own.
John Eldredge
But a wound unfelt is a wound unhealed.
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
We don't see clearly because we don't see with the eyes of our heart.
John Eldredge
A man needs a much bigger orbit than a woman. He needs a mission, a life purpose, and he needs to know his name. Only then is he fit for a woman, for only then does he have something to invite her into.
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
I wasn't mean I wasn't evil. I was nice. And let me tell you, a hesitant man is the last thing in the world a woman needs. She needs a lover and a warrior, not a Really Nice Guy.
John Eldredge
Security is not found in the absence of danger, but in the presence of Jesus.
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
Faith looks back and draws courage hope looks ahead, and keeps desire alive.
John Eldredge
We abandon the most important journey of our lives when we abandon desire. We leave our hearts by the side of the road and head off in the direction of fitting in, getting by, being productive, what have you. Whatever we might gain – money, position, the approval of others, or just absence of the discontent self – it’s not worth it.
John Eldredge
The point is the love story. We live in a love story in the midst of war.
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.
