John Eldredge
Image
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.

Image
Caring for our own hearts isn't selfishness it's how we begin to love.
John Eldredge
Image
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
Image
But a wound unfelt is a wound unhealed.
John Eldredge
Image
It takes great courage to be vulnerable. It takes enormous strength to be a real woman.
John Eldredge
Image
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
Image
We are created for adventure, and if we cannot find one, we start blowing things out of proportion so it feels like we have one.
John Eldredge
Image
