Wild At Heart By John Book Report

Satan (the devil as defined in the bible) has been connected to the book in a strange manner. He has been blamed as the reason for the various kinds of internal spiritual conflicts in women. It does not define Satan well enough to explain why driving him away from one's mind can be a solution to problems in life. God has been stated as someone who loves everyone. While this does comply with the Bible, it can create confusions. God has been mentioned as someone who longs to have a relationship with everyone to fill a place in his heart. This can imply that god is not perfect and needs us to make him complete. The fact that god needs us to worship to be a part of his heart, for his satisfaction, presents a false image. A lot of efforts have been made to explain god's love for us metaphorically. However a lot of these metaphors seem to cross the limits of their actual representation in the bible. God has been said to want a romantic relationship with every one of us. This has been compared to romantic scenes in movies such as...

While this makes sense to some extent, the sexual aspect brought into it defiles it significantly. The author asks us to take each of those scenes and imagine ourselves as the beauty being loved by Jesus who is the lower.
Biblical scriptures have not been included effectively. Considering that the book is directed towards women, several passages in the bible which could speak out to women have been missed out. The author has instead used scenes and stories from over 30 movies. Lines from novels and songs have been generously used as well. This is surprising considering that Biblical verses could have possibly served the purpose of the book much better.
