gengwall,
I loved Wild At Heart, for me. As I read it, I thought it might be awesome for men too. So I had my husband read it. It had a horrible effect on him.

“I’m a man. I can say what I want, be rude if I want. And if you tell me I can’t, you are trying to make me into a woman.”

It was awful. Instead of giving him spiritual freedom, it turned him into a jerk.

I love the idea of being wild and free in the Lord. I felt that book helped me with it because somehow God used it to help me. Guess I wasn’t indoctrinated enough at the time to realize that being wild and free didn’t really apply to me, a female created inside the garden…

Good thing for me. A pity for any woman reading it who couldn’t receive the wild and free part.

And a pity for men who couldn’t handle such information and used the liberty Elderidge tried to give them as an excuse to sin against their families.

A real pity.
