Knowing the Heart of God: A Year of Devotional Readings to Help You Abide in Him

A 365-day devotional from bestselling author John Eldredge designed to draw readers into a deeper, day-by-day knowledge of God’s character and purposes, combining Scripture reflections with insights drawn from Eldredge’s broader body of work.

Knowing the Heart of God: A Year of Devotional Readings to Help You Abide in Him invites readers into a year of daily devotional readings aimed at helping them understand and experience the heart of God more intimately. Drawing on Scripture and reflections drawn from Eldredge’s acclaimed works — including Walking with God, Fathered by God, Wild at Heart, Captivating, Sacred Romance, and others — this volume offers encouragement, insight, guidance, and wisdom for every season of life. Each day’s entry is structured to help readers understand God’s heart and their own deeper longings, discover the purpose behind their desires, unravel the dynamics of relationships (parents and children, spouses), engage in spiritual battles for the heart, and connect with the Father in intentional prayer and reflection.

This devotional, published in June 2025 by Thomas Nelson, is crafted to walk believers step-by-step closer to the tender and relational God who pursues them and calls them into a deeper life of faith.
