Captivated

In today’s podcast, Stasi sits down with pastor and author Melanie Boudreau to talk about the unexpected life. Naturally, we pray and work towards the life that we hope for, but how do we respond when God gives us something other than what we planned for? It's hard to surrender our self-life and step out of our comfort zone, but with our identity deeply rooted in Christ, there is no limit to what he can do with us and through us—even when life is challenging.

Psalm 103:19-21
The LORD has established His throne in heaven, 
and His kingdom rules over all.
Bless the LORD, all His angels mighty in strength
who carry out His word,
who hearken to the voice of His command.
Bless the LORD, all His hosts,
you servants who do His will.

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.
