  1. Christmas and the Return of Jesus

    3 DAYS AGO

    Christmas and the Return of Jesus

    If you're coming into this Christmas exhausted or empty, it may be because you're focused on secondary things—from finding the perfect gift to enduring the imperfect family gathering. In this timely message of hope, John and Stasi reorient us to the deeper, truer story of Advent season—which is both a celebration of Christ's first coming as a babe in the manger and an anticipation of his second coming as King. Your Christmas joy will increase exponentially as you look not only back at Jesus' arrival into our world, but forward to his return. _______________________________________________ There is more.

  2. How You're Coming Into Christmas

    DEC 16

    How You're Coming Into Christmas

    Where do you find yourself as Christmas nears? Are you entering into it with Jesus or lost in the rush of too little time and too much to do? The pull is to either up your game and be amazing...or lower expectations and settle for little hope and joy. In this third week of Advent, John asks Stasi, Jamie, and Stacey about the story they're telling themselves this Christmas, lessons from past holiday experiences, and the unique pressures women face in this season._______________________________________________ There is more.

  3. The Story You're Telling Yourself

    DEC 9

    The Story You're Telling Yourself

    Story is how we make sense of life, but when the narrative is shaped by loss, loneliness, or  disappointment, it can keep us stuck in an echo chamber of old assumptions. As we begin the holiday season, John and Allen ask what story we're telling ourselves about this Christmas before it even happens. Jesus stands ready to reframe our narrative if we'll choose to embrace the story he's telling for us—and with us. _______________________________________________ There is more.

    Less-Wild Lovers

    This three-part series concludes with John and Allen talking about the lure of "less-wild lovers" and how they seek to seduce us through false promises of comfort, control, and safety.

    There's Got To Be More

    Our hearts long for greater adventure and romance than this world can ever fully satisfy. This can't be it. There's got to be more. Thankfully, there is! In this second of a three-part series, John, Stasi, Allen and guest Mary Ellen Owen talk about how The Sacred Romance pulls the curtain back on this cosmic drama that God's been weaving since before time began. Like a lost message from Eden, it reveals a story big enough to satisfy your yearning for intimacy, beauty, and adventure in this world of danger, risk, and chaos.

  6. The Story of Your Heart

    NOV 18

    The Story of Your Heart

    The true story of every person is not the story we see, the external story, but the journey of their heart. Tragically, we try to ignore or silence our hearts—whether through busyness, work, hobbies, more church duties, or a colorful fantasy life. It never works, because we were made for more, and we know it. Which makes this the perfect moment to relaunch John Eldredge and Brent Curtis' book, The Sacred Romance. In the first of this three-part series, discover the origin story of this breathtaking message and hear John read the first chapter from the updated edition of this transformative book. The Sacred Romance book, audio, and workbook are available at the links below and wherever books are sold.

    Waves of Betrayal: An Interview with Sam Ainslie

    Incredibly successful in the eyes of the world's elite, Sam was good at keeping up appearances. But he had more lifestyle than life. Internally, he was afraid to trust others due to a series of immense betrayals. In this intimate conversation with John and Allen, this quiet man from the Big Island of Hawaii puts language to his journey from depression and isolation into a genuine community of love and trust. His story is featured in the final episode of Wild at Heart: The Series. View the trailer to Sam's episode here. Watch Episode 4 (Sam's Story) of Wild at Heart: The Series here.
