[Between the Lines]

I have not read Eldredge's book, so can not address its accuracy.

Wild at Heart is a good book, but it is not good theology. You might want to check out some of these critiques.

Are Men Really Wild at Heart?

There is a growing trend among Christian authors (particularly Protestant ones) where they feel the need that everything they write must be biblically based and supported by scripture even when it may not be. So often they find vague scriptures or pull verses out of context to associate their ideas with the Bible. By doing so they can inadvertently introduce heresies.

I do not understand why Christian authors feel this need to have every idea backed by scripture. A good idea is a good idea, even if the Bible never addresses the subject.

Thanks for your little tidbit.

Yes, an interesting observation as I checked out those links.
