The Journey of Desire

What do you want? This is the question that we must ask ourselves, digging deep into our souls to discover that which drives us onward. In The Journey of Desire, John Eldredge ignites that spark that may light the flame of desire within, moving aside all that we think we want in order to make room for the deeper desire that can bring us true fulfillment.

Eldredge writes in down-to-earth terminology. He communicates eternal truths by leaning on quotes from those who have gone before as well as examples from the parables of our times, the movies. With Jesus Christ as the ultimate example of passionate desire lived out to the fullest, Eldredge shows how it is critical for each person to allow themselves to desire whatever it is that God has planned for them. In doing so, he demonstrates that this is the only way to become who we really are and have a life of true fulfillment and happiness.

I am just finishing up the book and have purchased the study guide/journal so that I may go through it again and mine more nuggets of wisdom from its pages.

Highly recommended reading!
