Wildmen started out in 2003 with 8 men who got together to attend a “40 Days of Purpose” small group. Purely by word-of-mouth it quickly grew from there.
Currently we have Wildmen meetings in 8 locations, in 3 states and in 2 countries. Yes, we even have a Wildmen Ally in Australia. We never set out to form a ministry, just relationships. But God had bigger plans.
Dear Friends, Dallas Willard once described the Kingdom of God as “The Effective Range of the Will of God.” In other words, where what God wants to be done is being done. There is no doubt that what happened this weekend at Timber Lakes Camp was the expansion of God’s Kingdom! After this weekend’s retreat, the hearts and trajectories of the lives of many man were changed because of the Gospel going forth to them with clarity and power!
Men all over the world are leading Wild at Heart Boot Camps, and countless men are being set free. Wildmen Kansas recently hosted a weekend Boot Camp and shared with Wild at Heart how God came that weekend, through a company of men, and how he is still moving in the men who attended.

Wild Edge Adventures are 5-day retreat experiences for men in Southwest Utah. Trips are designed for men to be removed from the city, submerged in majestic mountains and the great outdoors. Trips include fly fishing, ATV excursions, adventurous hikes, skeet shooting, nightly bonfires and most of all, time with God in his creation.

Beautiful Outlaw is a dangerous book! It has caused me to fall in love with Jesus all over again. I realized in reading it that Jesus is a whole lot different than what I have been told, taught, and believed. He is so refreshingly inviting, masculine, and full of life that my picture of Jesus is forever altered. I want to draw as close to this man and follow Him with everything I am.
Through the teaching of Jesus in John's new book Beautiful Outlaw, Brent believes that the question of "Who is Jesus?" can best be answered by looking at the stories in the gospels, and has discovered an amazing man! Brent has been able to encounter Jesus more and more as he learns of the real Jesus described in Beautiful Outlaw...
My name is Jim. I'm a 39 year old husband and father of 2. I'm a youth pastor by trade, but because of my response to the wounds from my past, I abandoned that calling almost 2 years ago. In the 2 years that I've been away from ministry, I've undergone a tireless search for why I just couldn't seem to get things together. I was familiar with John Eldredge's stuff for some time, saw him at Catalyst, read parts of...
