Many argue that the authors' personal experiences add too much bias to a book intended to address wide human conditions many others find fault with the authors' scriptural analyses. Captivating by John Eldredge, Stasi Eldredge, April 7, 2005, Thomas Nelson edition, Hardcover in English. The book has received considerable criticism from people both within and outside the Christian sphere.

The authors use scriptural analysis, personal experience and interviews with others as the basis for their argument. Captivating is a companion to Wild at Heart, also by John Eldredge, and argues that its model of femininity complements men's innate desires for a battle to fight, an adventure to live, and a beauty to rescue. John and his wife, Stasi, live in Colorado Springs, Colorado. He is also president of Wild at Heart, a ministry devoted to helping people discover the heart of God, recover their own hearts in God's love, and learn to live in God's kingdom. The book rejects the idea of an ideal woman and explores biblical scripture from the view that God desires woman to embrace her glory, rather than fear her femininity.
