COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – In the current global climate of fear, uncertainty, and anxiety, many believers have contented themselves with experiencing life “to the half” rather than the full that Jesus promised in John 10:10. In his new book, Enter Wild: Exchange a Mild and Mundane Faith for Life with an Uncontainable God (WaterBrook, 6/16/20), bestselling author and speaker Carlos Whittaker invites readers to embrace complete healing, to exchange anxiety for amazement, and to abandon worry for wonder.
With his trademark blend of humor and transparency, Whittaker shares his personal struggle in coping with anxiety—and how the key to his freedom was rediscovering a wild faith. He insists that we are meant to receive the abundance God promises here and now. The process, as he explains, follows a simple structure: Enter Rest, Enter War, and Enter Wild. By following this path, Whittaker was able to:
- Find forgiveness and healing from past addictions § Restore and strengthen his marriage
- Experience freedom from crippling anxiety
- Recover broken friendships, and discover how to lead his family well
Amidst incessant news cycles, the barrage of negativity in social media, and an overwhelming sense of global uncertainty, Whittaker’s message of hope is more vital than ever. As he explains, “When we lower the volume of life, the volume of God goes up. And when the volume of God goes up, the chaos begins to calm.”
“Remember,” Whittaker writes, “we are living in a broken world with trauma and trials. And oftentimes, we have to walk through the wilderness in order to truly Enter Wild. But we are able to receive God’s favor and abundance even in the midst of those seasons.”
With suggested prayers included throughout the book and “Reflect and Practice” questions at the end of each chapter, Enter Wild presents the ideal resource for encouraging and guiding weary believers back to a hope-filled, wild faith.
