Great Insight

This book follows on nicely from book 1 ‘Wild at Heart’ which had some serious gold, so probably best to listen to that first. This isn’t one of those books you finish reading & tick off your list. As for me anyway I’ll be back to this gold mine several times & definitely introduce other quality guys to it. If change & understanding oneself was easy, everyone would do it - take the time to invest in yourself & your 10 year old self in the future will thank you.

Fathered by God

This is a follow on from "Wild at heart". The book describes the stages in a man's life and seeks to initiate the male reader through each stage. It describes how wounds can be inflicted in the stage and offers advice on how to heal people through these wounds and how people can be supported.
I found the book thought provoking and allowed me to reflect and understand what to do to seek answers to questions I have had in my mind for some time. It was both helpful and guiding.

Great Sequel To The First Book

This is a book that ties nicely to the first one. To understand this book or audio book reader needs two "readings" and the first book.

Carnegie

I found this book inspiring as I too lost my earthly Father young and have been fathered by god through my life. I wish I had this book 40 years ago.

One of the best books

A Profound Exploration of manhood and faith

Eldridge's Fathered by God is more than just a book; it's a transformative experience. Through his raw and vulnerable prose, Eldridge invites readers on a journey to uncover the profound depths of manhood, both human and divine. His words pierce through facades and defenses, laying bare the core longings of every human heart for a loving, affirming father figure.

A tapestry of vulnerability and wisdom

Eldridge's own story of grappling with a distant father serves as a powerful springboard for his exploration of God's fatherly love. He masterfully weaves together personal anecdotes, biblical insights, and theological depth, creating a tapestry rich in vulnerability and wisdom.

A transformative message for all

This book is not just for fathers or sons. It's for anyone who has ever yearned for a deeper connection with the divine. Eldridge's message of God's unconditional love and acceptance is transformative, offering hope and healing to all who seek it.

Here are some specific things I loved about the book:

Eldridge's writing style is both lyrical and relatable. He has a gift for weaving together complex theological concepts with evocative imagery and raw emotion.
The book is full of practical insights. Eldridge doesn't just tell us about God's love; he shows us how to experience it in our own lives.
The message is one of hope and healing. Whether you're struggling with a difficult relationship with your own father or simply yearning for a closer connection with God, Fathered by God offers a beacon of light.
Overall, I highly recommend this book to anyone seeking a deeper understanding of fatherhood, faith, and the love of God.

5 out of 5 stars

I would also like to add that Fathered by God has touched the lives of countless readers around the world. It has been praised for its ability to heal broken relationships, rekindle faith, and offer hope in the midst of despair. If you're looking for a book that will challenge you, inspire you, and change your perspective on God and fatherhood, then Fathered by God is a must-read.
