life. You can be victorious through the power of the Holy Spirit!
Sometime between the dreams of your youth and yesterday, something
precious has been lost. And that treasure is your heart, your priceless
feminine heart.
Every woman was once a little girl. And every little girl holds in her
heart her most precious
And yet, as the years pass by, the heart of a woman gets pushed aside,
wounded, buried. Most women think they have to settle for a life of
efficiency and performance, striving to be the women they “ought” to be
but feeling they are failing. The effect has not been good on the
feminine soul. What Wild at Heart did for men, Captivating does for
women by
- discovering the glorious design of women that God
originally intended;
- revealing how Jesus restores the feminine heart;
- enabling readers to heal the trauma in their story; and
- casting a vision for the inherent power, freedom, and
beauty that a woman possesses.
In this updated and expanded edition of their runaway bestseller, John
and Stasi Eldredge vulnerably share their story and show you how to set
your heart free and embrace life as a woman who is truly captivating.

chapter to help make your own Sabbath experiment successful.
