Wild At Heart : Discovering the Secret of a Man's Soul

Rating:
Summary: Truly scary!
Review: It's truly amazing that this kind of book finds a publisher at all after 9-11, let alone a Christian publisher. To say that women, by nature, want to be rescued and that men, by nature, want to rescue them is not Biblically grounded; it is bigoted!

Review: Received this book as a gift on this Christmas. Not knowing the author and what this book was about, since it has a title talks about a man's soul I finished reading this book in two days. I must warn every reader to take a grain of salt when reading this book as I found much of the saying in this book are unbiblical. As to the heart of man (an unregenerated soul that is), God declares "The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked; Who can know it?" (Jeremiah 17:9). To enter the Kingdom of God, one must be born again by receiving a new heart reigned by Christ (John 3:5). Without a heart reigned by Christ, whatever one does is futile (Luke 19:27). If you want to know a heart that pleases God (not to please man, nor *self* as being promoted by "Wild at Heart"), read Dr. Martyn Llyod-Jones "Studies in the Sermon on the Mount."

The secret of a man's soul is to love God and enjoy Him forever. To spend one's life pursuing the fleshly desire such as a battle to fight, an adventure to live, and a beauty to rescue only leads one's soul to emptiness and void. Worst yet, it is a life after Satan. Bottom line - "Wild at Heart" is just another book from modern self-appointed evangelical about man's "self esteem" (Satan's old trick in Genesis 3:5). I would not recommend this book to anyone.
