Overview

There is a glory to life that most people—including believers—never see. In this insightful new book, John Eldredge presents the heart as central to life. Not only is the heart essential; the heart God has ransomed is also good. Building on these foundational truths, Eldredge shows readers why real Christianity is a process of restoration, where the broken parts of our hearts are mended and the captive parts are set free.

Waking the Dead leads listeners to understand how to live from the heart, care for their heart like the treasures of the kingdom, and give from fullness instead of emptiness. This message also shows how living from the heart can energize people to love God and others in a way they've never experienced, revealing to them life's purpose: fighting for the hearts of others.

Waking The Dead

John Eldredge has quickly become one of my favorite authors. This is more of a book to make you think and not quite as exciting as Wild At Heart or The Way of The Wild Heart. Waking The Dead focuses on your heart as the complete source of virtually everything from strength to our weakest depths of sin. Eldredge continues to keep me excited about listening to his books. I am trying to challenge myself to implement many of his (or Christ's) suggestions in my daily life and routine.
