So, having no interest in that, I avoided the book. Somehow I formed the opinion that, at least in that book, Eldredge was promoting some kind of Christian form of machismo. I read reviews of it in some Christian magazines and heard that many women’s advocates, both Christian and non-Christian, both male and female, absolutely hated it. I vaguely remember the controversy over Wild at Heart when it was first published. Again, some commenters asked what I thought about Eldredge’s book. They asked because of my interest in the “decline of men” and the “wounded male psyche.” Recently here I interacted with the book Malestrom: Manhood Swept into the Currents of a Changing World (Zondervan, 2015). Over the years of this blog several commenters have asked my opinion about the book Wild at Heart: Discovering the Secret of a Man’s Soul (Thomas Nelson, 2001) by John Eldredge.
