The Sacred Romance
Drawing Closer to the Heart of God
About the book
Brent Curtis and John Eldredge write about the Christian spiritual life as a call from God to the human heart, one heard in memories, loves, achievements and hurts. They argue that people have lost touch with their hearts while chasing efficiency, success and even Christian service.
Erik Rostad, creator of the Books of Titans project, read it in 1998 just before heading to college and said it led him to literature and to reading the classics in earnest.

Erik Rostad (Creator/Books of Titans project)
Don’t worry, this is not a steamy romance novel ;). I read this book in 1998 just before I was heading to college. In the book, Eldredge showed how the stories we relate to in novels, movies, and plays are echos of the grand narrative of the Christian story. As a Christian, this was very compelling and led me to literature. I began reading some of the classics in earnest after reading this book [...] My entire library and reading history can be traced to this one book.
