Enter Wild - by Carlos Whittaker (Paperback)

About the Book

"Popular speaker and author Carlos Whittaker reveals how he broke free from a safe, boring faith and invites readers to experience all the wild and wonder Jesus promised His disciples. In John 10:10, Jesus said, "I came that they may have life and have it abundantly." While we have direct access to the radiant life of the Holy Spirit that Jesus promised us, many Christians today feel worry instead of wonder and anxiety instead of amazement. In Enter Wild, Carlos Whittaker shares the exciting news that we are meant to experience the abundance that God promises us here and now; we are not meant to wait until heaven to experience His best"--

Book Synopsis

"Step into a life gripped by a God who calls you into more--more faith, more freedom, and more victory."--Levi Lusko, pastor and bestselling author

You are meant to receive the abundance God promises here and now. You are not meant to wait until heaven to experience His best. Even in the midst of our broken world's traumas and trials, you can

- learn to lower the volume of life and truly hear God
- experience what it means to speak God's Word over yourself for real victory
- discover how to pray His promises instead of praying over the problems

With his trademark blend of humor and transparency, gifted storyteller Carlos Whittaker shares his personal struggle in coping with crippling anxiety--and how the key to his freedom was rediscovering a wild faith. That key can be yours, helping you open the door to leave mild and enter wild.

Carlos speaks to what freedom and a plentiful life can look like when we step into our calling of wild faith."--Sadie Robertson, New York Times bestselling author, speaker, and founder of Live Original

"Carlos and I have been close in each other's lives for more than fifteen years. Watching God do what Carlos shares in this amazing book has been a thrill. It's time for you to pull up a chair at the table now and let my buddy Carlos tell you how to Enter Rest, Enter War, and Enter Wild."--Tyler Reagin, founder and CEO of The Life Giving Company and author of The Life-Giving Leader

"This book should come with a backpack because, when you open it, you're starting a new adventure! I love that 'Los calls us out of our comfort zones to explore faith in ways that are far beyond average. Buckle up with this one. You're about to be stretched, challenged, and encouraged!"--Jon Acuff, New York Times bestselling author of Finish: Give Yourself the Gift of Done

"Brace yourself: Enter Wild pulls no punches. Carlos shares his deliberate journey toward freedom with wit, courage, and candor. I was drawn in from the first page and reminded that experiencing the fullness of God requires a fierce faith; not faith you have to fight for, but faith you're finally ready to receive. You'll be forever changed by this book."--Rebekah Lyons, bestselling author of Rhythms of Renewal and You Are Free

"I believe God is stirring the hearts of believers with a deep dissatisfaction for the status quo. We know there must be more to this Christian life, because the radical and raw stories we read about in Scripture do not match up with our experience. As only Carlos Whittaker can do, he unapologetically calls us to the life that is available as children of God. He takes us on a journey that will inspire and challenge us to pursue the abundant life Christ has paid for. I am grateful for someone who is willing to look at the real issues we are facing and contend for hope. Enter Wild is a call to the life we're intended to live."--Banning Liebscher, founder and pastor of Jesus Culture and author of Rooted: The Hidden Places Where God Develops You

"Whittaker challenges readers to slow down and find God's plan through prayer in this empowering work. . . . Whittaker is at his best when talking about his own process of developing a 'wild faith.'"--Publishers Weekly
