Beschreibung des Verlags
Accept the wild, daring adventure of becoming a man. Learn about the potential pitfalls, joys, and triumphs that lay ahead as you begin the journey to become the man God created you to be.
We all desire to be self-sufficient and find our own direction as we pursue our dreams. We want to know it all and never ask for help. But sooner or later the thrill of independence gets lost in the fog of isolation and uncertainty.
It’s time to take the pressure off. We were never meant to figure life out on our own. We need mentors and guides to show us the way and share their earned wisdom. Killing Lions was born out of a series of weekly phone calls between Sam Eldredge, a young writer in his twenties, and his dad, best-selling author John Eldredge.
Join the conversation as a John and Sam talk about real life issues and struggles, including:
Figuring out a career and callingDealing with moneyIdentity and validationLove and datingDecision makingSpiritual warfareQuestions and doubts about GodGetting marriedChasing dreamsSetting off on your adventure when circumstances are uncertain.
Killing Lions is more than fatherly advice, it is an invitation into a journey: either to be the son who receives fathering or the father who learns what must be spoken. Rooted in Scripture and full of honest wisdom, Killing Lions will help you face and conquer the trials that lay ahead as you become the man God created you to be.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
John Eldredge (Wild at Heart) is joined by his son, Sam, for a give-and-take examination of what it takes to become a man. A writer in his 20s, Sam asks advice from his father John, a Christian counselor, author, and adventurer, and John responds. The elder Eldredge rejects the hackneyed "the journey is the destination" language, instead counseling his son that it's time to enter into the "warrior" phase of becoming who you are meant to be. With allusions and stories drawn from literature, global adventures, mistakes John has made, and sound fatherly advice, the book also includes prayers for guidance and for sexual healing. For John Eldredge fans, seeing the younger and more idealistic Eldredge not getting doused with cold water and told to grow up, but instead fanned into flame by his father is pure gold for fathers and their young adult sons.
