Captivated

What might God do if we gave him our attention and our yes, for a single day? In the midst of our full lives, it is often easier to come away for one day than the full 4-day Captivating Retreat. In this episode, Stasi and Stacey Burton are excited to share about a new offering from Wild at Heart: the Captivating 1-Day Retreat. It's amazing how deeply Jesus can move when we give him a day to come away and be with him. Listen and discover what can unfold when we make space for deeper connection with Jesus.

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.
