  <default-description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Walking with God&lt;/em&gt; moves through a year in the life of John Eldredge showing and teaching what an intimate relationship with God looks like day to day.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;God longs to speak. And it is our right and privilege to hear His voice. Our deepest longings could all find sufficient fulfillment in God's company. Yet, somehow, the looming discontent of most Christians is a lack of intimacy with God. &lt;em&gt;Walking with God&lt;/em&gt; is unlike any book John has written. It moves through a year in his life showing and teaching what conversational intimacy with God can be like. It teaches readers how to make decisions aligning with God's will, understand barriers and &quot;agreements&quot; keeping them from the life God intends, fight spiritual battles for their own heart and for others, and much more. Ultimately, &lt;em&gt;Walking with God&lt;/em&gt; shows readers that walking intimately with Him can be a normal part of the Christian life.&lt;/p&gt;</default-description>

    <body><![CDATA[I have to say this book was a welcome and needed change of pace. The author uses examples from his own life as a way to make a guide to developing a conversational relationship with God. The (or one of the) overarching themes of the book is that in order to have a life in which we walk with God we m...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/36197467">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Listening to this book on audio- it's really good, by the same author of &quot;Wild at Heart&quot;, and &quot;Captivating&quot;.<br/>Just finished this book- it had a lot of good stuff in it, but some not so good, and doctrinally &quot;odd&quot;.

    <body><![CDATA[I really loved every second of this book. Eldredge is a popular writer of books for Christian men, but this book really is for everyone.  It is more or less his own personal journals &amp; thoughts over a year.  He digs into issues that I had never thought could be &quot;dug into&quot;.  In other words,...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/37247022">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I had John Eldredge as a professor in college, and so I love to read anything he writes. He just resonates with me. This book made me think about things I've never thought of, and made me realize how little I include God in my day-to-day decisions. It's kind of embarrassing, but it gives me great ho...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/24889367">more...</a>]]></body>
