Every woman was once a little girl. And every little girl holds in her heart her most precious dreams. She longs to be swept up into a romance, to play an irreplaceable role in a great adventure, to be the Beauty of the story. Those desires are far more than child's play. They are the secret to the feminine heart. And yet--how many women do you know who ever find that life? As the years pass by, the heart of a woman gets pushed aside, wounded, buried. She finds no romance except in novels, no adventure except on television, and she doubts very much that she will ever be the Beauty in any tale. Most women think they have to settle for a life of efficiency and duty, chores and errands, striving to be the women they "ought" to be but often feeling they have failed. Sadly, too many messages for Christian women add to the pressure. "Do these ten things, and you will be a godly woman."The effect has not been good on the feminine soul. The message of Captivating is this: Your heart matters more than anything else in all creation. The desires you had as a little girl and the longings you still feel as a woman--they are telling you of the life God created you to live. He offers to come now as the Hero of your story, to rescue your heart and release you to live as a fully alive and feminine woman. A woman who is truly captivating.

Exactly what I needed to read this week. Gave me a LOT to think about and illuminated a number of things in my life. ( )

Toda mujer fue una niña alguna vez. Y toda niña guarda en su corazón sus más preciosos sueños. Anhela que la enamoren, ansía representar un papel indispensable en una gran aventura y desea ser la bella de la historia. Esos anhelos son mucho más que un juego infantil. Son el secreto hacia el corazón de una mujer. ( )

This title was highly recommended -- so it was selected for a small women's Bible study group. I along with other members of the group have found it very hard to understand what the authors are trying to say. When I, an avid reader of anything including cereal boxes, have to force myself to read a book, that is a bad thing. There are a few truths that I gleamed from the book and our discussions, but it didn't make up for the agony of trying to read the long chapters to get ready for group night.

The biggest help I got from the book was the knowledge that most women feel the same thing...that the church's outlook and avoidance of some issues is part of the problem...that we need other women to help us with our journey...but everything should be centered around our relationship with the Lord who made woman as a wonderful, marvelous, and beautiful being.

NOTE: The best part of the book was A PRAYER FOR SEXUAL HEALING found in the appendix of the book. -- "So it is important to bring our sexuality under the Lordship (and therefore protection) of the Lord Jesus Christ, and seek his cleansing of our sexual sins." p231 ( )

Not truly a selfhelp because they are both Christians. It looks at the unique problems that a woman must deal with, mostly of the psychological and emotional variety. Made me glad I wasn’t a woman. ( )
