We live in two worlds — or better, in one world with two parts, one part that we can see and one part that we cannot.

John Eldredge

John Eldredge (* 1960) ist ein US-amerikanischer christlicher Autor und Seelsorger, der durch die Arbeit des Werkes „Wild at Heart“ bekannt wurde. Weltweite Bekanntheit erlangte er mit Bestsellern wie „Der ungezähmte Mann“, die Fragen nach persönlicher Identität, seelischer Heilung und christlicher Männlichkeit thematisieren. Während seine bildhafte Sprache vielen Lesern Impulse für eine lebendige Gottesbeziehung gibt, stehen seine Schriftauslegung und seine Vorstellungen von Geschlechterrollen in der theologischen Kritik.
