He wants us to become the kind...

“Faithful, Not Predictable”

Written by capital-admin on . Posted in John.

Easter reminds us that God can take the world’s darkest moment and turn it into a miracle. Do you ever feel like God has forgotten about you or that he doesn’t care about your job, finances, or love life? Never assume God is done working. His timing is often different than our timing. Easter reminds us that God can meet us in our pain and grief with good news, with hope, and with love. Our role is to respond with faith, trust, and belief in the faithfulness of an unpredictable God.

“The True Meaning of Christmas”

Written by capital-admin on . Posted in Uncategorized.

What is so shocking about Christ’s coming is that God didn’t wait for us to get our junk together before he came to be with us. He came to be with us because we couldn’t get our junk together. The presence of shepherds at the manger scene reminds us that God doesn’t play favorites. He cares deeply for people who are rejected and excluded. Maybe your life is out of control, your anger is out of control, your kids are out of control, maybe you don’t like yourself. But will you dare to trust a God who cares, a God who’s been there? Christ came not for people who deserve him but for people who...

“Real Love Changes Everything”

Written by capital-admin on . Posted in Uncategorized.

Real love is defined this way: God is love. God has chosen to shower His love upon us. We have value, not because we are lovable, but because we are loved. Scripture tells us that God has already chosen to love us. He sent his Son first, to prove how much he loved us. When you grasp this real love, it changes everything. May the love of God shape your soul in this season, may the love of God transform your relationships through the holidays. As it brings joy, as it brings peace, as it brings patience, and kindness, and gentleness while you celebrate Christ’s coming. Copyright...

“Faithful not Predictable”

Written by capital-admin on . Posted in Uncategorized.

Luke 2:19 tells us that Mary treasured up all the things that have happened to her and pondered them in her heart. When we consider the events leading up to the birth of Jesus, we see four experiences which Mary pondered and prized: injustice, inconvenience, insufficiency, and incompatibility. We face these same events in our life and it’s important we recognize that God is faithful, not predictable. Especially during seasons in which God isn’t doing what we think he should be doing! Is there an injustice in your life you think God should correct? Is there a problem you face you think God...

“Still God’s Child”

Written by capital-admin on . Posted in Uncategorized.

When asked who will be the greatest in the kingdom of heaven, Jesus uses a little child to remind the disciples that the way up to greatness is actually the way down. It’s not from childish behavior, but in childlike faith where we find the reverence, humility and dependence on God that redefines greatness. No matter our smarts or success in athletics, academics, finances, life experiences or years on this earth, we can never overachieve enough to find ourselves out of being under the mighty hand of God. The good news, the great joy this Christmas, is that God sent His child so that we can...
