Experiencing Jesus with John Eldredge

As we continue our series on “The People Who Shape Us,” John Eldredge joins us. He is someone who has shaped how we pray and ultimately how we relate with Jesus ourselves. He’s been a mentor and spiritual father to many, and has significantly shaped how we lead even our children to experience Jesus for themselves. In the beautiful, kind words of a spiritual father, John shares stories about how he healed while raising his own kids, and what that healing did for how he started to relate to and experience the love of Abba in his own life. He also describes his own spiritual journey as having walked through what he calls “wardrobe doors,” a nod to C.S. Lewis’ pathway into Narnia. He also shares how to find the people who can shape you in your pursuit and experience of Jesus. The key question John leaves us with is: “What has worked for you?” Time Stamps: 0:00 Introduction to John Eldredge and how he’s shaped us 6:30 The beginning of John’s story to knowing Jesus 7:34 The first wardrobe door 11:47 John’s journey to healing and leading his family at same time 16:26 The second wardrobe door 23:23 The antidote to “rallying” and “living spent” 28:06 The fight for the human soul 33:02 The third wardrobe door 37:37 The beautiful ways Jesus transforms us and the ways we self-protect 57:12 How to find the people who can shape you Show Notes: Get a copy of John’s new book Experience Jesus.
