In this episode, Stasi sits down with Olivia Eldredge, editor of The Message Women’s Devotional Bible, as they explore where the stories of women rise with dignity and depth. Together they uncover God’s heart for His daughters and His invitation to bring our whole selves—questions, wounds, and the deeper places of our hearts—into His presence.

What if the ache you carry—the insecurity, the anxiety, the quiet sense of being “not enough”—is rooted in a lie you didn’t even know you believed?

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.
