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.

Image
God endowed you with a glory when he created you, a glory so deep and mythic that all creation pales in comparison.

Image
Every man carries a wound. I have never met a man without one. No matter how good your life may have seemed to you, you live in a broken world full of broken people.
John Eldredge
Image
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
Image
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
Image
But a wound unfelt is a wound unhealed.
John Eldredge
Image
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.
John Eldredge
Image
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
Image
A man's calling is written on his true heart, and he discovers it when he enters the frontier of his deep desires.
