Walking with God: How to Hear His Voice

If you have ever wanted a mirror into John Eldredge's "real" life- you know, the behind the "famous author" scenery that the public sees- this is the book for you. I am only half way through, but I just had to review it now and encourage you to read this book. This is a read best taken in small bites. I have read only a page or two at a time, then taken off to think and pray about what John has shared. This book is a spiritual stretch. Enjoy!

This is a great book written in short essays that touched me personally in so many levels. It seems like each section jumped out at me with something I've been going through now or have in the past. It instructed me well in listening to God and deepening my walk with him. I highly recommend this book and also John Eldridge's other books.

Since starting with Wild at Heart, I have read all of John Eldredge's books and found them all to be a challenge to my previous beliefs. They took me away from traditional theology and on the path to understanding myself and my relationship with God.

Walking with God is a marvelous book with many great stories within it. I still have trouble with getting God's voice on the mundane decisions in life, but without question it is the way to hear the important answers to your most intimate questions.

I have read the book once and suspect that with all of his other books it needs to be read 2 or 3 times to get the full impact.

This book inspired me to listen, really listen to what god is saying in daily life. It gives me a picture of the closeness that I could have with God myself, and that it is attainable. I have been so fathered and blessed by this book!

As a Christian Marriage Family Therapist, I read the current reviews with interest. The negative reviews center on a concern that following John Elderege's advice could be dangerous. I find that John Elderedge's Walking With God hits the needs of broken Christians (and we are broken)spot on.

I agree that not every voice in our head is God, but the Voice of Truth, is in there and John Elderege encourages us to find it and listen. My experience has been a reawakening of a close and personal relationship with the Lord God through His Son Jesus.

Great food for thought. The author is so transparent about his spiritual life and spiritual struggles. A good reminder about the spiritual warfare that we are constantly in the middle of as Christians. His personal experiences are so helpful and easy to relate to.

Amazing. Drop the book you are reading and pick this up now! Love John's vulnerability in sharing his personal walk with God with his readers. This book will inspire you to be more honest with yourself and your journey with God. Absolutely beautiful!

Use this product for a women's retreat....it went great. Also used the workbook for personal quite time with the group. Everyone learned so much. I am still reading the book, watching the DVD, to continue my own personal growth. Very simply and enjoyable.

My first impression of this book was, where do they find the time to tdo all that praying? I enjoyed the book but I guess I never got the real point of the book other than God has a plan and sometimes we fight that plan and end up getting hit by a two by four to pay attention. Also they we have tendency to focus on what God is not giving and to not look at what God is giving us. Although not dynamic and slow in laces is worth the read or the listen.

Excellent book regarding spiritual warfare. Author gives plenty of personal examples of what he did and did not do. Easy reading, but difficult application for most humans. Highly recommended for those believing in spiritual warfare.
