One of the things they’ve gone through is recognizing, when they’re really honest with themselves, they don’t pray nearly as much as they want. In addition to his work as widely influential author-he is the bestselling author of Wild at Heart-Eldredge is the president of Ransomed Heart, a multi-faceted resource ministry that for Christians. “You know: The marriage stuff, and the kids stuff, finances and all that,” he says. John Eldredge and his wife have been through a lot over the past 30 years. ![]() |
