Book Sneeze Review of Wild at Heart by John Eldredge

Wild at Heart, by John Eldredge

This is a review on the revised and expanded New York Times Bestseller. The subtitle of the book, discovering the secret of a man’s soul is addressed. The secret, per John Eldredge is getting past the wounds left by our fathers. This may apply to a certain part of the male population, but not all men have been damaged by their father’s mistakes or lack of guidance.

My father was at best an absentee dad. My mother did an outstanding job of raising 5 kids. My brother and I kept our masculinity throughout. While I related to a few things the author discussed, I really could not get fully engaged or excited about the book.

If you or someone you know has deep wounds caused by a poor father, this book could help them.
