Captivated

How do we bless strength, adventure, and tenderness in the next generation without fear or striving? Stasi welcomes Rebekah Lovell into a conversation about her book Boyhood Resurrected, honoring the God-given design of boys and the invitation Jesus offers us to bless what is wild and good. Together, they explore how grace, wisdom, and hope meet us as we raise hearts formed by love, freedom, and faith, in a demanding culture.

And friends, as we talk about boys being “wired for wild,” we are not diminishing the unique and glorious ways girls are wired for adventure as well. While most Captivated episodes are directed toward women, this conversation turns toward nurturing boys in a world that too often misunderstands or diminishes them.

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.
