Story
Every man was once a boy. And every little boy has dreams, big dreams: dreams of being the hero, of beating the bad guys, of doing daring feats and rescuing the damsel in distress. Every little girl has dreams, too: of being rescued by her prince and swept up into a great adventure, knowing that she is the beauty.

John Eldredge calls men back to a simple and reassuring truth: God is our father. In life's trials and triumphs, God is initiating boys and men through the stages of manhood from beloved son to cowboy to warrior to lover to king to sage. Fathered by God maps out the path of manhood - not more rules, not another list of principles, not formulas, but a sure path men have followed for centuries before us.

Follow one man’s journey of learning to hear the voice of God. By putting words to the things God has shown him through some amazing experiences, John Eldredge helps listeners shed light on the miraculous truths that God is showing them right now. Our deepest need is to live in conversation with God. To hear his voice. To follow him intimately. This is the single most life-changing habit that a human being can adopt, because it brings us back to the source of life. Yet most Christians have never been taught how to have a conversation with the Creator.

Story
Cracking the communication code between husband and wife involves understanding one thing: that unconditional respect is as powerful for him as unconditional love is for her. It's the secret to marriage that every couple seeks, and yet few couples ever find. While both men and women deserve both love and respect, in the midst of conflict the driving need for a woman is love and the driving need for a man is respect. When either of these needs isn’t met, things get crazy.

Story
In her new book, Stasi Eldredge meets listeners in their painful realities and offers an invitation to a joy that is defiant in the face of this broken world. This joy does not Pollyannaish-ly ignore life's heartache; rather, it insists that sorrow and loss do not have the final say. This kind of joy is present to both goodness and grief and interprets them in the light of heaven.

Join the conversation as a father and son talk about pursuing beauty, dealing with money, getting married, chasing dreams, knowing something real with God, and how to find a life you can call your own. Killing Lions is more than fatherly advice. It is an invitation into a journey: either to be the son who receives fathering or the father who learns what must be spoken. Most important, these conversations speak to a searching generation: "You are not alone. Its not all up to you. You are going to find your way."

This revolutionary book about our future is based on the simple idea that, according to the Bible, heaven is not our eternal home - the New Earth is. As Jesus says in the Gospel of Matthew, the next chapter of our story begins with "the renewal of all things", by which he means the Earth we love in all its beauty, our own selves, and the things that make for a rich life: music, art, food, laughter, and all that we hold dear. Everything shall be renewed "when the world is made new".

How would it feel to enter into prayer with confidence and assurance - certain that God heard you and that your prayers would make a difference? It would likely feel amazing and unfamiliar. That's because often our prayers seem to be met with silence or don't appear to change anything. Either response can lead to disappointment or even despair in the face of our ongoing battles and unmet longings - especially when we don't know if we're doing something wrong or if some prayers just don't work.

The obsidian mirror. Its power is great and terrible. Men have been lost in it, the dead brought back to life through it, and the future annihilated by it. Or this is what will happen unless the mirror is destroyed. Three people seek the mirror: the first has been sent from the future to shatter its power; the second will protect the mirror at all costs, obsessed with its power; and the third needs the mirror to find a murdered father and save his life. But only one can succeed. The mirror can send you to the past, but it will not bring you back.

This will change you
What did you love best about Captivating?
This is not just for women, husband please discover some of the world changing factors on women and why we are so attack. How to come out of the cycle of not feeling like we're good enough or we are just too much.
This audio/book dramatically changed my view point. Audio was good for me because I had to get through the first few chapter, but chapter 6 had me captured and in tears.
I a Christian women who has been walking with God since I was 16, a soldier in the United States military and I never saw my brokensss until I listen to this audio.
I have since order all the bible study material because I feel this is a message every women and man needs to hear.
I did not know that I had fears and wounds that dictated how I presented myself until I realized what those wounds and fears were.
I didn't even know I was broken.

From a man's perspective
The book Fathered by God was so good that I had to read Captivating to see God's perspective on women. It really opened my eyes to how beautiful A woman is and what her beauty is supposed to look like. Both this book, Captivating, and the men's book, Fathered by God, are worth a lifetime of study.

What did you love best about Captivating?
I was left with a wonderful feeling of love-that I was loved -by Jesus, and no matter what, He loves me. So much love, warmth, and healing radiates from this book. I am going to listen to it again to allow more of the words and wisdom to "permeate my being"! I am not meaning to sound like a "new age guru", but this is a really positive book to listen to -well worth the time and money invested!!
Who was your favorite character and why?
I loved listening to the personal experiences Stack shared.
What does John Eldredge and Stasi Eldredge bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
They are both wonderful narrators, and bring a tremendous sense of realism and warmth!
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
I wanted to listen all at once, but do to time, I did take some breaks! I did listen to it all in one day, though, and will hopefully do the same again today!!!

Enlightening and invigorating
I read or half read this book many years ago and i just wasn't ready to receive 'it'. I was clearly living in fear of ....... What? Myself I think.
Now I feel inspired and invigorated, enlightened and alive.
I have suffered in life and I am still suffering but I am here and I know I also have a story and a voice that God Himself has given me to share with others in a small attempt to possibly support, encourage and empower women and men as you have done, even in a small way.
And also to continue the work God is doing in me and always has even when I feel utterly beaten.
Thank you John and Stasi. God bless you in all you do and who you are.

Great premise but falls a little short
Not every female aspires to be a princess waiting to be rescued or saved. So that’s where this one was amiss for me. Only got to chapter 3, fast forwarded most if it til then. Also, there are a few cultural references particularly to Native American princess that is a little out of touch for this day and age. The Disney princesses narrative throughout this book leaves out a lot of women of color & Indigenous & Native women who do not aspire to these predominantly white characters.
