A revised and expanded edition of bestselling author John Eldredge’s classic exploration of the deepest longings of the human heart.
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.
