Nashville, TN, October 28, 2024 – John Eldredge, renowned author, counselor, and teacher, celebrates a monumental achievement with over 15 million copies of his books and Bible studies sold since his debut in 1997. This milestone not only marks Eldredge’s enduring impact on readers worldwide but also sets the stage for exciting new projects to captivate audiences once more.
2024 marks a banner year with the highly anticipated release of a revised and updated version of The Sacred Romance, co-authored with the late Brent Curtis. Set to release on November 12, this edition will feature a new cover and accompanying Bible study designed to inspire both old fans and new readers alike.
Wild at Heart, a seminal work in Eldredge’s collection, continues its legacy with over 7 million copies sold. The associated ministry, Wild at Heart, will commemorate its impact with a series of unique films. Wild at Heart: The Series explores stories of transformation inspired by the book. Each week starting October 11, a new 45-50 minute video will premiere exclusively on YouTube, culminating on November 1. Eldredge shares his personal story within the series, shedding light on his path from inner struggles to healing, resonating with millions globally.
“It’s been an honor for the Nelson Books team and all of HarperCollins Christian Publishing to serve in the trenches with John Eldredge over these many decades,” shared Nelson Books publisher Andrew Stoddard. “We have all been impacted by the work of Wild at Heart and are excited to see the book, Bible study, and events impact the generations to come.”
Looking to the future, in 2025, Eldredge will continue to enrich the spiritual landscape with the release of Experience Jesus. Really.: Finding Refuge, Strength, and Wonder through Everyday Encounters with God (March 4th, Nelson Books). This work follows the success of his 2022 bestseller, Resilient.
“Reflecting on this incredible milestone, I am deeply moved by our collective journey towards spiritual awakening and transformation. It’s a privilege to witness how readers from all walks of life have embraced the call to explore the depths of their spiritual identity,” shared Eldredge. “This celebration is a testament to the power of stories that mend hearts and inspire a profound connection with God. I eagerly look forward to the next chapter, inviting all to continue this adventure into the richness of spiritual growth and healing.”
Eldredge’s contributions have not only reshaped narratives of masculinity and spirituality but also provided a roadmap for healing and growth for countless individuals.
