About this book

We see Jesus, we believe in Jesus and we wait for Jesus, yet still we suffer. This book offers real and rugged answers in life’s dark places. Discover how to live with hope in a fallen, messed- up, "wild" world, and be encouraged.

Walking through Genesis 3, Dan DeWitt shows us how we can look at this world realistically but without despairing, as we wait for God to keep his promise to bring us out of the wild and into his new creation. It’s the contrast between Eden, where everything reflects God’s perfection, and exile, where everything is spoiled by sin. The book helps us survive living in exile - Life in the Wild - until “the glorious day when God will welcome us home, out of the wild”.

Endorsements

Living in our broken world, full of pain and disappointment and sin, is difficult for all of us. In Life in the Wild, Dan DeWitt reminds us that the mess we live in is, like us, awaiting a future redemption. Read along as Dan teaches us to navigate these challenges and anticipate the arrival of our perfect hope, Jesus, who will make an end of death and make his blessings flow far as the curse is found.

Russell D. Moore Editor in Chief, Christianity Today

4.00 stars Excellent Book

 

A great book which looks at how this world is full of evil, pain and suffering. It has a constant reminder that for Christians this is OK because this world is not our home and we have a great savior in Jesus. I would recommend it to any christian.

4.00 stars Very helpful read about the Christian life

 

I enjoyed this description of the Christian life, highlighting in places the contrast with alternatives. There are several pieces of creative writing/memorable phrases ("Living in the land of meh"; "shame grows in isolation"; "human history marches to the cadence of providence") which help to make the book engaging, and reveal the challenges of a faithful life in fresh ways. In a short book, the author still manages to quote from a wide range of writers to reinforce his points. All in all, I found it a helpful and stimulating read!

5.00 stars Solid Read

 

Dan's book is an engaging read. It is filled with theological truth and practical application. His use of great contemporary illustrations helps to drive his points home. Dan's subject of the fall of mankind and living in a fallen world is one that many authors have discussed. However, Dan addresses these topics with a cultural awareness that reminds people of their condition and position before God and the war they are at with themselves. After demonstrating thrdr truths of the human condition before God He then paints the way to Jesus as the one who has conquered death and is ...
