Come Away, Beloved.
Rekindle your heart and encounter God's romance at Eagle Sky.
September 25-28, 2025
A woman must know she is delighted in; that she is loved, wanted, seen and needed.
What if those deep desires in your heart showing you the life you were meant to live?
The way you handle your heart is everything.
You know you were made for more…
More love.
More hope.
More healing.
What you don’t need is MORE INFORMATION
You need an encounter with Jesus

It’s time to go on a treasure hunt to discover the beautiful feminine heart that God has placed in you.
Are you ready to encounter God?
How about experience:
Healing
Freedom
Revelation
Breakthrough
& Your Hope restored
Come spend four days on a quest to discover the true heart of God.
In order to play the role that you are meant to play, you must get your heart back.

God is whispering, 'Come away with me, my beloved,'
What is the Captivating CORE Retreat?
Through teaching sessions, film clips, music, guided periods of reflection, and downtime immersed in beauty, we're inviting you to take the risk of coming alive as a woman—God's captivating woman.
In today's world, we're told to ignore the desires of our hearts. But to neglect the heart is to ultimately lose all hope.
Captivating CORE is an invitation into what every woman longs for:
To be romanced
To unveil her true beauty
To play an irreplaceable role in a great adventure
Captivating CORE is not a retreat about “how to behave and become the perfect woman.”
It is a four-day journey into the recovery of our feminine hearts and seeing the truth of how God sees us. For if we are going to know who we truly are as women, if we are going to find a life worth living, we must first recover what has been lost.
We must get our hearts back.
Why do I need CORE?
Join us for our four-day event as we journey together into the deep mysteries of our feminine souls in order to recapture our hearts.
Written on every woman’s heart is a longing to be romanced, to play an irreplaceable role in a grand adventure, and to have a beauty all her own to offer.
A woman needs a deeper understanding of why these longings govern her—and what God had in mind creating her heart as He has. And women need a deeper understanding of men’s hearts; why men long for a battle to fight, an adventure to live and a beauty to inspire.
The invitation of the gospel is to trust, to risk, to jump.
It’s a story of great momentum and power. It is not a story of being a good girl. It’s not a story of duty and obligation. No, it’s something far more risky, and dangerous and wonderful.
There is something fierce, valiant and heroic in the heart of every woman.
Here’s what you’ll experience:
Video sessions with Stasi Eldredge and her team.
Teaching, worship, guided reflection, personal downtime.
Discover the desires written on every woman's heart.
Guided times of worship, and personal reflection will allow the Holy Spirit to move in your life.
Discovering Your Heart's True Beauty
Immersed in Beauty.

"The material for the retreat was really, really good! I loved each session—it was like open-heart surgery multiple times a day with the Lord! He revealed things that had been hidden by our hard world for decades, but it’s part of His original design for us. Wow! It truly impacted how I see myself and the world now."
– Saundra P., Minneapolis
