Summary

Join us for a captivating episode of Typology as we dive deep into the spiritual journey with New York Times bestselling author John Eldridge! In this special interview, we explore themes from his latest book, Experience Jesus Really: Finding Refuge, Strength, and Wonder Through Everyday Encounters with God.

We engage in a rich conversation about the impact of modern-day addictions, the quest for genuine experiences of God, and the importance of cultivating a spiritual life amidst the noise of our fast-paced world. John shares insights on becoming an "ordinary mystic," the significance of desire in our spiritual journeys, and practical steps to reconnect with the divine presence within us.

1:56.9	So, John, I'm really curious about this book because I've just finished a book that drops next month called The Fix.
2:07.7	And the book is about the 12 steps and how they are a surprising path of transformation for the well-adjusted, the down-and-out, everyone in between.
