wild at HEART
Does fear control you, struggle with emotional pain, or a sense of living without purpose or value? The 3-day Wild at Heart events at Bristol Mountain Home offers BASIC for men and CORE for women (cut: and couples) a safe space to experience the Father heart of God, His passionate love, healing forgiveness, and grace. Inspired by the life-changing books Wild at Heart and Captivating by John & Stasi Eldredge. These events are designed to hep you break free from what holds you back and discover the freedom God intends for you and discover your true identity in Christ. The small intimate group setting gives a safe place to share one another’s stories, gain perspectives, encourage one another and experience the exponential power and presence of Holy Spirit.
After experiencing BASIC or CORE, you are welcome to attend Advanced Wild at Heart or Advanced Captivating. These 3-day events will take you even deeper in freedom and intimacy with God.
Additionally, if you are interested in incorporating Wild at Heart into your marriage, and after each spouse has attended a BASIC & CORE, we are offering BASIC & CORE for couples.
This isn’t just a ‘feel good’ event-it’s a chance to be truly seen and known by a loving Father who desires your wholeness. Whether you’re a teen, college student, or professional in fields like medicine, law enforcement, or the military is encouraged to come individually or as groups. You are invited to rediscover your purpose, release your fears, and live confidently in God’s love.

“Written on every woman’s heart is a longing to be romanced, to play an irreplaceable role in a grand adventure, to unveil and offer her true beauty. 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 for you to live. He offers to come 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.” Stasi and her team invite you into this journey thru Captivating/CORE.

“Deep in his heart, every man longs for a battle to fight, an adventure to live and a beauty to rescue. That is how he bears the image of God; that is what God made him to be. In Boot Camp/BASIC, John and his team invite you to recover your masculine heart, defined by a passionate Father God.”
Coming to the CORE retreat, is simply coming into the arms of Jesus. Yes, there are powerful teachings, delicious food, and time in His beautiful creation; but the preeminent focus is seeking, finding, and resting in the heart of God. For there is where true healing, restoration, and identity are found. God takes each woman on her own journey, but all leave having taken a step forward in their story of redemption and a step deeper in knowing the heart of God.
Isaiah 61:1 "The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me, because the LORD has anointed me to bring good news to the poor; he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound."
