John Eldredge - Böcker

In an age when fathers are more important than ever, how do you embark on your journey to manhood and know how to steer clear of the dangers along the way? In Fathered by God, New York Times bestselling author John Eldredge reminds us that there's a path to masculinity and, best of all, there's a loving Father ready to help us follow it. In Fathered by God, Eldredge calls men back to a simple and reassuring truth: God is our Father, and he wants to show us what masculinity really means. Eldredge teaches us that there's a path leading to authentic manhood, cut by generation after generation of men. There are perils along the trail, even disasters--all the more reason to rely on the guidance of a Father who has gone before us.A boy has a lot to learn in his journey to becoming a man, and it takes the active intervention of father figures and the fellowship of other men to guide us along the way. Eldredge shares that in all of life's trials and triumphs, God is initiating boys and men through the stages of manhood.Through personal stories and practical guidance, Eldredge provides a map through the six stages of a man's journey and answers some of the most common questions about manhood that he's received over the years, including:How can I set a good example for my son?What does the Bible teach us about masculinity?How can I become the man that God designed me to be? Fathered by God maps out the path of manhood--not more rules, not another list of principles, not formulas, but a well-worn path that men have followed for centuries before us. Discover the truth about masculinity and become the man that God sees in you.

Designed for use with the Wild at Heart Updated Video Study DVD, sold separately.Have you had it with the pressure to be a nice guy?  Wild at Heart author John Eldredge reminds men we need adventure in our lives . . . in our work, in our love, and our spiritual lives. He reveals how God designed men to be dangerous. Simply look at the dreams and desires written in the heart of every boy: to be a hero, to be a warrior, and to live a life of adventure and risk. Sadly, most men today have abandoned these dreams and desires—aided by a Christianity that feels like nothing more than pressure to be a "nice guy." It is no wonder that many men avoid church, and those who go are often passive and bored to death.   So, instead of asking what you think you ought to do to become a better man, John asks us in this study, “What makes you come alive? What stirs your heart?” Join John and his band of brothers as they share stories of the deep wounds of their earlier years that took away their confidence and—in some cases—their masculinity.  Their stories and John's teaching surface these important discoveries:   Men are haunted by the question, Do I have what it takes?   Our deepest wound comes from our fathers, and shapes us for the rest of our lives  In a world that emasculates men, we long to be the hero – we have a battle to fight!  We are searching for a beauty to love  We are wired for an adventure to live  Men, it’s time to recover our masculine heart, and step into the identity that God designed for us—dangerous, passionate, alive, and free!   Sessions include:   The Heart of a Man  The Power  The Wound  The Battle  The Beauty  Adventure

The voice catches us off guard, whether in the middle of the day or the dead of night. It is the voice of God, wooing our hearts with words that seem too good to be true.

Most Christians miss the ultimate hope for their future because their views of heaven are vague, religious . . . and, frankly, boring. Hope begins when we understand that for the believer, nothing is lost. Heaven is not an endless life of harp strumming and worship singing in the clouds. Rather, the life we long for – the paradise Adam and Eve knew – is precisely the life that is coming to us. And that life is coming soon.In this five-session study, John Eldredge explores the revolutionary idea that according to the Bible, heaven is not our eternal home – the New Earth is. Jesus said the next chapter of our story begins with “the renewal of all things” (Matthew 19:28), by which he meant the earth we love, ourselves, and all the things that make for a rich life: music, art, food, and laughter. God’s promise is that everything shall be renewed “when the world is made new.”Part devotional, part adventure story, part field manual, this study will help you see the glorious future coming to you and provide “hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure” (Hebrews 6:19). Ideal for individual or group use, this guide includes personal reflection questions, targeted excerpts from All Things New, a Big Ideas overview, small-group discussion questions, and group exercises. A leader’s guide is also included for those facilitating a group.Sessions include:The Hope of RenewalCreation Made NewYour Story Told RightlyWhat We’ll Do in the New EarthThe Power of Our HopeDesigned for use with the All Things New Video Study (9780310087656).

'You live in a love story set in the midst of a very real war...' What Wild at Heart did for men, and Captivating did for women, LOVE & WAR will do for married couples everywhere. John and Stasi Eldredge have contributed quintessential works on Christian spirituality for men and women separately but now they turn their focus to the incredible union between those two forces - marriage. With refreshing openness, the Eldredges discuss their own marriage and the insights they've gained from the challenges they've faced. Both speak independently to the reader about what they've learnt, giving their guidance personal immediacy and balanced male and female perspectives.John and Stasi begin LOVE & WAR with an obvious but necessary acknowledgement: marriage is fabulously hard. For every minute of happy delirium, there are equal amounts of disappointment and frustration and a sense that we've been deluded, that this isn't the marriage we dreamed of. Once we admit this, we are free to accept the great adventure of marriage; working together through strength gained from our own individual relationships with God, rather than looking to each other for happiness.

Jesus is the most vague, misrepresented figure in the history of the world. Is it possible to know and trust someone so ethereal and lofty? What is he really like? BEAUTIFUL OUTLAW offers a look into the humanity of Jesus, dismantling all the religious nonsense and helping us understand who this man really was - on a personal level. Focusing on his compelling personality, bestselling author John Eldredge shows us the real Jesus - playful, wild, and often scandalous.

Mata a tu león es una exploración entre padre e hijo, a las preguntas a las que los hombres jóvenes se enfrentan cuando se acercan a la edad adulta-preguntas que siguen acosando a muchos hombres aún en la mediana edad.El título proviene de la tradición Masai en la que un joven finalmente sabe que se ha convertido en un hombre cuando ha matado a un león.El estilo del libro es conversacional. Por lo general Sam toma la iniciativa al contar una historia de sus años en la universidad, graduación, cortejando a una mujer, de su casamiento, o de la búsqueda de una carrera, y John responde con el consejo de un padre y sus propias historias de "comienzo en la edad adulta."Un diálogo entre un hombre joven que representa a los Millennials y un hombre maduro ofreciendo conocimiento y sabiduría sobre las questiones eternas de la jornada hacia la edad adulta.Mata a tu león is an exploration, by father and son, of the questions young men face coming into manhood.The title is drawn from the Masai tradition in which a young man finally knows he has become a man when he has killed a lion. The style of the book is conversational. Sam will typically take the lead by telling a story about his college years, graduation, pursuing a woman, getting married, or finding a career, and John will respond with counsel from a father and his own stories of “coming into manhood.”

In Luke 11:1, the disciples asked Jesus, "Teach us to pray!" Most of us want to know more about how prayer works. While we are used to offering up prayers, we wonder if we are praying in the most effective way or if we are approaching the throne of God in the "right" way. We ask ourselves:How do I listen for God?How do I pray for healing?How do I pray when I am under spiritual attack?How do I pray to break through strongholds of habitual sin?How do I pray for protection?How do I pray for my lost friends and family?In this eight-session video Bible study (DVD/digital video sold separately), bestselling author John Eldredge shows how we labor under the misconception that prayer is asking God to intervene instead of partnering with him to get things done. This faulty assumption leads to untold confusion and grief when we ask of God but can't sense He hears us—or even cares. Rather, Jesus says, "I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven" (Matthew 16:19). When we operate from this position, we approach prayer with far greater confidence. We understand we have a role in making change happen and are not victims of circumstance—that we are sons and daughters of God bestowed with tremendous authority.Sessions include:There Is a Way Things WorkThe Cry of the HeartThe Prayer of InterventionThe Prayer of ConsecrationListening PrayerWarfare PrayerHealing PrayerHolding the Heart in Unanswered PrayerDesigned for use with the Moving Mountains Video Study (sold separately).

John Eldredge, autor best seller del New York Times ofrece una guía paso a paso hacia una oración eficaz, una guía paso a paso a través de diversas ocasiones en las que las oraciones pueden ser aplicadas, incluyendo el fundamento bíblico que respalda «la técnica», anécdotas alentadoras y modelos de oraciones.¿Por qué unas oraciones funcionan y otras no? ¿Cómo se sentiría orar con la confianza y la garantía de que Dios te escucha y que tus oraciones hacen una diferencia?John Eldredge ofrece una guía paso a paso hacia una oración eficaz. Todos tenemos una razón para orar. Anhelamos ver que Dios conceda nuestras peticiones y las de nuestros seres amados. Sin embargo, algunas veces no lo hace, y entonces, ¿dónde nos deja esa situación? ¿Estamos haciendo algo mal? ¿No nos escucha? ¿Por qué las oraciones de algunas personas parecen más eficaces que las de otras? Entonces nos desanimamos y dejamos de lado la oración, el arma misma que Dios nos ha dado para que no nos desanimemos.Si tienes algún interés en la oración, necesitas oraciones que funcionen. Esa es la clase de oraciones que constituyen el tema de este libro. Cuando descubrimos que la oración no consiste simplemente en pedirle a Dios que haga algo, sino que representa nuestra colaboración con Él, se abren ante nosotros nuevas posibilidades. No hay nada más esperanzador que el pensamiento de que las cosas pueden ser diferentes, y de que tenemos un papel que desempeñar en producir los cambios necesarios. Con Dios, podemos mover montañas.Mueve montañas te enseñará cómo experimentar el poder de la oración, desde la intimidad de la oración de escuchar, la oración de sanidad interior y el «clamor del corazón», hasta la habilidad de las oraciones de intervención, de consagración y de guerra espiritual. Tu vida nunca será la misma. Tampoco lo será el mundo… gracias a tus oraciones.This book offers a step-by-step guide through a variety of prayer applications, including the biblical basis supporting the “technique,” encouraging anecdotes, and model prayers.The disciples asked Jesus, “Teach us to pray!” Most Christians—most people for that matter—want to pray and do pray, but they don’t feel confident in the process. This book offers a step-by-step guide through a variety of prayer applications, including the biblical basis supporting the “technique,” encouraging anecdotes, and model prayers. John Eldredge has been teaching people how to pray for twenty years, and he has seen remarkable results. From experience, he knows what gets in the way of effective prayer and how to help people toward prayer that is truly effective.The book begins with a liberating reframing of what prayer is. Most Christians labor under the fundamental misconception that prayer is essentially “asking God to intervene.” This assumption has led to untold confusion and grief, for many do ask but God does not seem to hear…or care. Whereas Jesus said to his disciples, “I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven” (Matt 16:19). When we operate from a position of our authority in Christ, we approach prayer with far greater confidence.

In his groundbreaking book, The Journey of Desire, John Eldredge invites readers to:Rediscover their God-given desire.Abandon resignation.Search again for the life they once dreamed of.Sometimes it seems we just can't get what we want. Circumstances thwart our best-laid plans. We struggle to live a heartfelt life. Worst of all, says Eldredge, the modern church mistakenly teaches its people to kill desire (calling it sin) and replace it with duty or obligation (calling it sanctification). As a result, at best Christians tend to live safe, boring lives of resignation. At worst, their desire eventually breaks out in destructive ways such as substance abuse, affairs, and pornography addictions.

Accept the wild, daring adventure of becoming a man. Learn about the potential pitfalls, joys, and triumphs that lay ahead as you begin the journey to become the man God created you to be.We all desire to be self-sufficient and find our own direction as we pursue our dreams. We want to know it all and never ask for help. But sooner or later the thrill of independence gets lost in the fog of isolation and uncertainty.It’s time to take the pressure off. We were never meant to figure life out on our own. We need mentors and guides to show us the way and share their earned wisdom. Killing Lions was born out of a series of weekly phone calls between Sam Eldredge, a young writer in his twenties, and his dad, best-selling author John Eldredge.Join the conversation as a John and Sam talk about real life issues and struggles, including:Figuring out a career and callingDealing with moneyIdentity and validationLove and datingDecision makingSpiritual warfareQuestions and doubts about GodGetting marriedChasing dreamsSetting off on your adventure when circumstances are uncertain. Killing Lions is more than fatherly advice, it is an invitation into a journey: either to be the son who receives fathering or the father who learns what must be spoken. Rooted in Scripture and full of honest wisdom, Killing Lions will help you face and conquer the trials that lay ahead as you become the man God created you to be.

Awaken your heart and discover the life Christ promised so you can be fully alive.Jesus said, “I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” That's the offer of Christianity, from God himself.Just look at what happens when people are touched by Jesus—the blind see, the lame walk, the deaf hear, the dead are raised to life. In other words, to be touched by God is to be restored. To become all God meant you to be. That is what Christianity is supposed to do for you—make you whole, set you free, bring you fully alive.But Jesus also warned that the path to that life is narrow, and few people would find it. You'll notice few have. Waking the Dead will help you find that life, see the fierce battle over your heart, and embrace all that God has for you.This revised and updated edition of Waking the Dead includes:A new introductionA “Selah” section for reflection in every chapterSuggestions for praying your way through the book There is more to the life God promised than you ever dreamed. Do you want it?

Normalmente no nos identificamos con el autor de una gran historia. En lugar de eso, nos aferramos al heroe y heroína de quienes se trata la historia. Compartimos sus sufrimientos y sus triunfos. Celebramos sus logros y sufrimos sus pérdidas.Cuando pensamos en nuestra propia historia, vemos a Dios como el autor intelectual, omnisciente y omnipotente pero fallamos en reconocerlo como el personaje principal. Este libro relata una vez más la historia del evangelio en cuatro actos, John Eldredge nos invita a revisitar el drama de la vida, considerando a Dios no solo como el autor sino como el actor principal, explorando su corazón y sus motivos. Eldredge examina el poder de la historia, el anhelo de un «plan» que tenga sentido profundo dentro de nosotros, nuestro deseo de tener un papel significativo que desempeñar, nuestro amor por los libros y las películas, y cómo todo esto nos dirige anbl evangelio mismo.¡Es una historia mejor que cualquier cuento de hadas! Nuestros corazones humanos están hechos para grandes sucesos, y el Evangelio, con su tragedia y grandeza, es verdaderamente majestuoso.

Experience the power of prayer in a whole new way as you learn to pray with confidence and assurance.Join New York Times bestselling author John Eldredge as he offers you a step-by-step guide to effective Christian prayer.Everyone has a reason to pray. We long to see God come through for us and those we love. But sometimes he doesn't, and where does that leave us? Are we doing something wrong? Does he not hear? How come some people's prayers seem more effective than others? We ask these questions, and then we lose heart and give up on prayer—the very weapon God has given us to not lose heart.In Moving Mountains, John Eldredge helps you navigate these difficult questions and offers a hopeful approach to prayer that is effective, relational, and rarely experienced by most Christians. When you discover that prayer is not just asking God to do something—prayer is a partnership with God—new possibilities open before you.

Discover hope for your life today as you explore God’s plans for the future.New York Times bestselling author John Eldredge offers you a breathtaking look into God’s promise for a new heaven and a new earth.All Things New is for you if you’ve ever…Wonder if the difficult things you go through matterFeel anxious about the future and your loved ones' futuresFear that your dreams won’t come trueWant to understand what God has planned for your life All Things New helps you understand the simple but revolutionary idea that, according to the Bible, heaven is not our eternal home--the New Earth is. As Jesus says in the gospel of Matthew, the next chapter of our story begins with "the renewal of all things," by which he means the earth we love in all its beauty, our own selves, and the things that make for a rich life: music, art, food, laughter, and all that we hold dear. Everything shall be renewed "when the world is made new."More than anything else, how you envision your future shapes your current experience. If you knew that God was going to restore your life and everything you love any day; if you believed a great and glorious goodness was coming to you--not in a vague heaven but right here on this earth--you would have a hope to see you through anything, an anchor for your soul, "an unbreakable spiritual lifeline, reaching past all appearances right to the very presence of God" (Hebrews 6:19).Most Christians (most people for that matter) fail to look forward to their future because their view of heaven is vague, religious, and frankly boring. Hope begins when we understand that for the believer nothing is lost. Heaven is not a life in the clouds; it is not endless harp-strumming or worship-singing. Rather, the life we long for, the paradise Adam and Eve knew, is precisely the life that is coming to us. And that life is coming soon.
