Read by the author.

Discover the profound reality of truly growing up in Christ.

Break free from chasing momentary happiness and learn to experience real joy as you discover the profound reality of truly growing up in Christ.

Join counselor, teacher, and New York Times bestselling author John Eldredge as he shows you how to pursue joyous maturity and move into abundant life.

Maturity is the great lost aspiration in our hour. We are all running around trying to find happiness and become "the best version of ourselves," as so many programs promise. But in spite of all this activity, we feel like we're going in circles and no closer to real joy than we were when we started.

Under our efforts for success and connection, our immaturity sabotages our holiness and our happiness, leading us in those "stuck" patterns. But the good news is that we don't have to stay there. Jesus wants more for us. Like He did for Paul on the road to Damascus, Jesus wants to challenge our immature ways of thinking and living. He wants us to follow Him into abundant life.

In this challenging, encouraging, and thought-provoking book, John Eldredge invites you to explore what is holding you back from pursuing the rare and joyous maturity for which we were made and saved. Through rich biblical meditation, emotionally-engaged teaching, and a strong dose of loving honesty, you are invited to follow Jesus and to grow up. And that's very good news.
