Captivated

Stasi welcomes Karen Christakis and Stacey Burton of the Wild at Heart team into the studio for a candid conversation that quickly leads to how intentionally God is moving on our behalf—even when we aren’t able to see it. What matters most to Jesus is always our hearts, even more than rescuing us from the hard things we plead with him to change. As you listen to this podcast, you will hear the importance of stepping back to honor our stories in order to recognize the ways God is pursuing us and forging us into His very image of love.

VERSES:
James 1:2 (NKJV) — My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials,

Romans 5:3-5 (MSG) — There’s more to come: We continue to shout our praise even when we’re hemmed in with troubles, because we know how troubles can develop passionate patience in us, and how that patience in turn forges the tempered steel of virtue, keeping us alert for whatever God will do next. In alert expectancy such as this, we’re never left feeling shortchanged.

Isaiah 43:2 (NLV) — When you pass through the waters, I will be with you. When you pass through the rivers, they will not flow over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned. The fire will not destroy you.

What is Captivated?

Hosted by Stasi Eldredge, her desire for this podcast is for the revelation of the Love of God to so engulf the listener that they become exquisitely captivated by Jesus. Stasi wants to invite listeners to respond to the reality that they are the purpose of His pursuit, the desire of His heart, the intent of the Larger Story and the prize of Heaven. The King is captivated by them.

Episodes will be flavored with humor, passion, perspective, honesty, and personal stories both from Stasi and from guests that highlight the shared experiences of women living in these extraordinary days with hearts captured by Jesus.
