Seriously, ladies, unless you've read this book, you have absolutely no clue as to how the male mind is wired.  I know that is a pretty bold statement on my part, yet that is how strongly I feel about “Wild at Heart”, Doug asked me if I would read it (come to find out, he's read it 4 times!) and I really had no idea what I was in for.

If you have read this book (male or female), you know exactly what I'm talking about.  If you haven't read it yet, and are married, have sons, are considering getting married, get a copy today, from your local library if need be.

There were more "aha!" and "Oh! so that's why….." moments that went off for me in the last week than there have been in the last 30 years.

I honestly wish this book were around when I was raising my sons.  It would have explained so much that I would have understood a lot better.

So, What's the Book About?

While I can't use just one sentence or paragraph to describe the entire book, in a nutshell, it's an inside look and journey as to the spirit of man, his soul, how he's wired and how modern society, including how today's church, has squelched his adventure.  Although that one sentence summary doesn't do it justice.

"Life is not a problem to be solved… it's an adventure to be lived."

That pretty much sums it up.  While the book was actually written for men, it is definitely a must-read for women to truly understand and get at the heart of men.  

It's not a why men 'beat at their chest' kind of book.  Yea, I know, there are lots of other books written about the differences between men and women, such as "Venus & Mars" "He Said, She Said", etc.  In my personal opinion, those are purely for entertainment, while “Wild at Heart” is written from the soul to the soul.

Get a copy and read it.  You'll be thankful you did!
