In The Journey of Desire, John Eldredge writes, "We all share the same dilemma-we long for life and we're not sure where to find it. We wonder if we ever do find it, can we make it last? ... Our days come to us as a riddle, and the answers aren't handed out with our birth certificates. We must journey to find the life we prize. And the guide we have been given is the desire set deep within, the desire we often overlook or mistake for something else or even choose to ignore." The modern church often teaches people to kill desire and call that sanctification. "But," Eldredge says, "Christianity is not an invitation to become a moral person. It is not a program for getting us in line or for reforming society ... At its core, Christianity begins with an invitation to desire." In this follow-up book to the highly successful and thought-provoking work The Sacred Romance, Eldredge invites you to rediscover your God-given desire and to search again for the life you once dreamed of.Eldredge, John is the author of 'Journey of Desire Searching for the Life We'Ve Only Dreamed of' with ISBN 9780785267164 and ISBN 0785267166.
