Every little girl has dreams of being swept up into a great adventure, of being the beautiful princess. Sadly, when women grow up, they are often swept up into a life filled merely with duty and demands. Many Christian women are tired, struggling under the weight of the pressure to be a “good servant,” a nurturing caregiver, or a capable home manager.


What Wild at Heart did for men, Captivating is doing for women. Setting their hearts free. This groundbreaking book shows readers the glorious design of women before the fall, describes how the feminine heart can be restored, and casts a vision for the power, freedom, and beauty of a woman released to be all she was meant to be. By revealing the core desires every woman shares-to be romanced, to play an irreplaceable role in a grand adventure, and to unveil beauty-John and Stasi Eldredge invite women to recover their feminine hearts, created in the image of an intimate and passionate God. Further, they encourage men to discover the secret of a woman’s soul and to delight in the beauty and strength women were created to offer.

I loved this book by John and Stasi Eldredge!!! This is one of my top 5 “life changing books.” It seemed to speak right to my heart on so many different topics. The repeating theme is definitely how a woman longs to be considered captivating by those in her life, particularly the man in her life. The Lord God considers each woman captivating and is enthralled by us. Find fulfillment in who you are in God’s eyes – completely captivating!


This book is a definite answer to “Wild at Heart” by John Eldredge addressing the basic need in men to be strong rescuers. I read bits and pieces of Wild at Heart and heard many men rave about it at our church. We had just finished a ladies life group on my number one life-changing book, Strong Women, Soft Hearts, as well as Every Woman’s Battle and this seemed like the perfect follow up to the two. It was. Perfect.


I think this is a must read for all those Christian women who are yearning for something more in their lives and do not know what it is. It’s a must read for those who are yearning to understand themselves more thoroughly. It’s simply – a must read! I even want my husband to read it – or at the very least, parts of it!
