Experience Jesus Deeply in a Distracted World - John Eldredge - 150 - FrontStage BackStage with Jason Daye

FrontStage BackStage with Jason Daye - Healthy Leadership for Life and Ministry

How has instant access to an overabundance of information impacted the way we experience Jesus, and what can we do about it? In this week's conversation on FrontStage BackStage, host Jason Daye welcomes John Eldredge back to the show. John is a New York Times best-selling author, counselor, and president of Wild At Heart, a ministry dedicated to helping people discover the heart of God. His newest book is entitled Experience Jesus. Really. Together, John and Jason explore the contrast between how the world is shaping us and what Jesus is inviting us into. John also looks back on biblical history and the history of the church and helps us understand how we can experience Jesus at a deeper level.
