In Acts 15, we see the first real case of church drama hitting the church… and if they did not handle this case of division the way they did, we might not be here today. There was division, but how did the early church handle it?The truth is there is a lot of division in the church today. It's not hard to find. Media loves it. Sometimes we love it. But God hates it. This Sunday we unpacked what really divides the church as we touched on subjects like politics, alcohol, homosexuality, and even Dodger fans. Tune into this week's message called, “Drama Hits The Church.”Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

When it comes to our walk with God, nothing is more exciting than seeing people continually take steps to grow in their faith. Saying yes to Jesus is the greatest decision any of us can make… but that's just the starting point. A life with Jesus promises to be the most exciting adventure you could ever dream of, and we unpacked what a life following Jesus looks like this week in a message titled, “Saved To Be Sent.”Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

This week we jumped back into our journey through the book of Acts and our series ‘Church In The Wild', by looking at Acts chapter 12.At the beginning of Acts chapter 12, we see King Herod persecuting and murdering believers, and upon seeing how much it pleased the people, he doubles down and takes it even further.This highlights just how susceptible our flesh is to the fear of man, to this anxious need for people's approval, and affirmation. It also highlights how far we'll go to win that approval.Proverbs 29 tells us that the fear of man is a snare, or trap? What, then, is the solution?We explored the truth that while the fear of man is dangerous, there is a fear that sets you free. We unpacked this in a message called, “Fear That Frees”.Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

This Sunday we celebrated Mother's Day!We learn in scripture that honor is one of the love languages of God, but it is being lost in our world. It is perhaps more common for someone to honor themselves than it is for someone to honor someone else. But what does God think of that?The Bible teaches us that when we honor others above ourselves we honor God, whether we feel like doing it or whether they even deserve it. God's style of honor takes much humility and sacrifice which is why it can unlock God's blessings in our lives. We unpacked this in a message called, “Make Honor Common Again.”Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

In Matthew 28, Jesus gives every believer a clear mission—we often refer to it as the “Great Commission.” At Captivate, we have the privilege of living this out each week as we see lives transformed and disciples made for the glory of God. But what about beyond San Diego? How are we reaching people, serving communities, and making disciples across “every nation?”This Sunday, we turned our focus outward as we celebrated and explored how God is moving through our missions ministry—locally, regionally, and around the world. Over the past year, we've been part of incredible ministry and humanitarian efforts both here in our city and across the globe. Tune into this week's message filled with powerful stories and highlights titled, “Crossroads & Corners”.Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

This week we learned what God really wants to do in our lives through baptism. As we go down into the water, there is something God wants us to let go of. If we're honest, we aren't always good at letting go. Whether it's our stuff, an injustice, or a grudge, letting go in life is hard. But we will talk about letting go of one of the most difficult things: Our past mistakes. Looking at the life of Moses, we saw that God led him to a moment at the Red Sea where he could no longer run from his past. It was a difficult situation, to say the least, but we discover in scripture that God actually led him into it. Why would God do that? To set him free. God will lead us into some Red Seas so he can drown the shame that chases us.Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

In Matthew 10, Jesus sends out his disciples into the world to preach the Good News. Before he sends them, he tells them why he came. He says in verse 34, "Don't think I came to bring peace into the world. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword." What in the world does that mean?The Bible teaches us that Jesus comes on Easter to bring us peace, but that's not the first thing he comes to do in our lives. He first comes to wage war on the thing that steals our peace: Sin. We often want to make peace with our sin, but Jesus comes to wage war against it. Jesus doesn't come to accept us and our sin, but rather accepts us despite our sin and after dealing with our sin. I believe Jesus wants to set us free in a whole new way this Easter, no matter how long we've been in church, by waging war on that which takes away our peace.Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

Do you ever think about what it is exactly Jesus called us to? More specifically, what did He call us to do?In a world full of different systems and strategies for growth and a better life, vision boards and bucket lists, self help books and seminars, what really is the best plan for becoming better people and making the world a better place?This week we talked about how we can follow Jesus to become the best versions of ourselves and truly become “Fishers of men” in a message called, “Go Fish”.Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

It's easy to look at our surroundings or at our current place in the world and to doubt whether we can actually be the change that's needed. Our workplaces feel too dark. Our schools might feel too dark. Our corners might feel too dark.And often what that does is it puts a desire in us to leave the darkness in search of the light when the reality is that we are called to BE the light in the midst of the darkness.This week we're breaking down the lies that tell us we can't and instead pressing into the truth that tells us we must, by looking at the calling of all believers in The Great Commission. Part of what we're going to see is that our purpose is always tied to people, and when your purpose is people any setting is the perfect setting to be used by God.

When was the last time you had a good cry? Were you watching a movie that you became emotionally attached to and the tragic death of a character moved you? We cry for a lot of different reasons and we think it's only about releasing and expressing emotions. But God's Word tells us that our tears are way more powerful than that, if we know what to do with them."Those who sow in tears, will reap in shouts of joy!" Psalm 126:5 This week we continue our “Every Corner” series all about reaching our corners - the people in our lives for Christ - with a message called, “Sowing Tears.”Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

This week we jumped into the scripture that gave us the Corner Card, Mark 5 as Jesus heals the man known as the "demoniac." Jesus heals a very lonely guy. This man then wants to go follow his new friend and mentor Jesus. But Jesus tells him, "No, you need to go home instead." This seems very cold from Jesus, "Have a heart Lord!" This man probably felt some serious FOMO. But upon further investigation, Jesus wasn't keeping him out but sending him out so others wouldn't miss out. As we have been talking about in our series through Acts, Jesus does not want us to remain forever in the church building or the church bubble. Instead, He sends us out into the wild on the most exciting journey to share our faith with not just the world, but "our world." This week we talked about how to do that, as we walked through the Corner Card in a message called "Fix My FOMO."Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

The story of study for this week lets us witness perhaps the most radical transformation in human history. Saul the murderer, becomes Paul, the guy who wrote 1 Corinthians 13 that teaches us that "Love never fails." Same guy. That's ridiculous. Surely the budget to renovate Saul's soul was much too large to anyone not named Jesus (or Stephen). But how did it happen? Often in life we love the idea of transformation. We get excited about renovating our house, our body, our budget, etc. But then we find how much work and sacrifice will need to go into it and... we don't always want the change so badly anymore. Often we want the life of Jesus without the lifestyle of Jesus, what it takes to actually get there. This week we jumped into Acts 9 and talked all about it in a message I am calling "How We Transform."Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

I wonder if you can remember a time when you were lost? When I was younger I thought it would be funny to hide from my mom in the clothing rack at the mall, but when I jumped out to scare her she was gone and panic filled my little heart. I yelled out for her, I ran around looking, I literally thought in that moment I would never see her again. It is an emotion I can still feel when i relive it. Maybe you don't have that kind story, but at some point we all experience that sense of isolation, loneliness, fear of being cut off, and wondering if anyone will find us. Years later I had a similar, but different kind of fear when one of my kids went missing in a store. Every worst case scenario rushed through my brain, and I began to frantically rush around yelling out my child's name. I didn't care who I offended, what I looked like to others, I only cared about finding my lost child. And when I found the, joy flooded my heart as I picked them up and embraced them-my son who was lost was now safe! This week in Acts 8 God reveals His heart for any that are lost and need to come home. Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

Perhaps the most-like-Jesus of any character we study in the New Testament, and also one of the most relatable, is Stephen the Martyr. This guy is not an apostle, not a preacher, church planter, prayer warrior, and has no impressive resume or skills that we know about. And yet, because of his choice to forgive in Acts 7, he becomes more like Jesus than perhaps anyone else. Why? Because...We're never more like Jesus than when we forgive. But the truth is, forgiveness is hard. How do we forgive those who have hurt us the most? How do we forgive people who don't deserve it? How do we forgive people who haven't changed and who aren't even asking for forgiveness? This Sunday we will jump into all of it, as we together study what the Bible says about forgiving, and the freedom that comes with it.Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

Are you good at math? This is a complicated question because there are many types of math.But the type of math that can be hardest for us to understand in this life is what we will call, in this week's message, "God Math." We see in the beginning of Acts, as the church begins, that God adds to their number daily. We see God multiply their faith in others. This type of math is exciting! But in Acts 5 we see God introduce a new kind of math to his church: Subtraction. Even though we love when God adds and multiplies, the truth is God often uses subtraction to move our lives forward. God does not mind cutting out anything or anyone in our lives that is holding us back from bearing the kind of fruit he likes. We will dive head first into this idea as we study one of the most jarring and hard-to-understand stories in all of the New Testament: Ananias and Sapphira.Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

As we've been journeying through the book of Acts and reading all about the incredible feats of the early church, we've found ourselves marveling at the disciples' superhuman faith and strength and resolve.Except we know that they were anything BUT superhuman.Rather, they were ordinary people who God used for extraordinary purposes. So the real question is, why THEM?And the answer, in part, is that they were available. Availability was their superpower. And part of what we're going to see this week is that availability is often the precursor to experiencing a move of God. But what we must know, is that the enemy is always looking to stop the move of God, and often he does that by placing obstacles in the way of our availability.Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

For those of us who have lived in California for any length of time, we know that at any moment when we least expect it the ground can start to shake. Every time we feel the initial jolt we wonder in our minds, "Is this going to be the big on?!" There is nothing we can do to stop these quakes from coming, but we can prepare ourselves to respond and withstand them. Well, life is the same way. When we least expect things start to shake: emotionally, financially, relationally, etc... Do you have a strategy to endure when the shaking inevitably comes? Better yet, have you discovered a way to be unshakeable to the things life throws at you? This week we were in Acts 4 where the early church experience the first wave of persecution threatening their lives. We discover a bold church, that was unshakeable once they were shaken by God.Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

Busyness has become something our culture celebrates. It's become a badge of honor to overwork, get little sleep, and do "too" many things in life. Try telling someone you're not busy in 2025, they'll probably look at you like you're an alien. But how much of life do we truly miss when we are simply running through it? How often do we miss God, miss people, and miss miracle moments because we just did not see them? Most of the time we're not even looking. But what does it look like to begin to walk, not run, through life looking for his kingdom all around us? How do we go from seeing life in 3D to 4D, to being present physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually? Peter in Acts 3 shows us how to practically walk through life with eyes that are actually looking for God to move in our world. Tune into this week's message called, “Eyes Wide Open”.Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

One of the greatest examples of community in scripture is found in our chapter of study this week: Acts 2. What we learn in this chapter is that when the Holy Spirit works in our lives He drives us outside of ourselves and toward 3 things:1. The Lord 2. The Lost 3. The Lonely So often when we look for meaning in life, happiness, purpose, and a sense of belonging, we tend to look within. We often look in the mirror and ask ourselves life's deepest questions. But what we learn in scripture is that the answers to those questions don't exist within us. They exist outside of us. And when the Holy Spirit has his way in our lives, He reveals to us that what we are looking for is found beyond us, in the Lord and other people. Check out this week's message titled, "Outside of Ourselves."Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

Last week we kicked off our new years series "Church in the Wild" by giving an introduction of the book of Acts, what the purpose of the church is, and where we are going this year.Acts 1 gives us what is essentially the thesis statement for the church of Jesus in the known world today:"But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth." Acts 1:8 NIVIn this one action-packed verse we get the PURPOSE, the PLAN, and the POWER of the church. We are praying for a fresh understanding, freedom, and boldness to be the church that goes toward darkness, not away from it. Like the early church, we pray that we become a church who falls in love with the only cause worth giving our life for.Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

The Book of Acts is the remarkable story of how God used a group of ordinary people to catalyze the largest faith movement in the history of the world. And thus, the church began! But why did God make the church? What's its purpose? The truth is everything God makes has a purpose, and that includes us as the church. God made the church to lift up his name, end loneliness, and be the light to the world. This Sunday we unpacked this in a message called, “Why God Made The Church.”This Sunday I can't wait to unpack it all with you in a message I'm calling "Why God Made The Church." Join us this season as we pray for the Lord to pour out a fresh boldness and courage over our His people. Our prayer is that we be the kind of light that goes toward the darkness not away from it. We pray God would give His people a new and soft heart for those who don't know him. We pray for boldness because a broken world needs a bold church.Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

We hope that you had an amazing holiday season surrounded by loved ones!As has become tradition at Captivate, we kicked the year off with a Praise Party! We want to jump into 2025 the best way we know how, by honoring and praising our God together.We also talked about various ways to dive into spiritual disciplines together as a church, which is a focus of ours in this new year— things like fasting, studying the word, and worship. We believe that spiritual disciplines hold the key to real life transformation. We hope that you feel equipped to draw closer to God in the new year!Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

Each and every year this holiday season offers so many traditions we get to enjoy, but the problem with tradition is we rarely let it transform us. It's more about the past, things we've already learned and experienced, therefore it does not always bring the life change we're longing for.But when Jesus became Emmanuel, God with us, he became our savior, past, present, and future. Therefore, Christmas is not just about history and eternity but also about our present day reality. How can we allow Christmas to touch, transform, and bring life to the darkness, most painful and anxious areas of our lives? We unpacked this in our Christmas messaged called, "The Manger is Me."Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

Christmas reminds us another season has come and gone. We mark our lives by moments, and Christmas is one moment we all experience. For some this moment is joyful, while others painful, as things are not where you thought they would be. You began 2024 praying, planning, dreaming of a narrative for your life and it did not take long for things to veer of course.The question is, "How will you respond?" It takes a certain courage to press forward when things blow up, when dreams are changed, when the story you are living is not the one you planned. This week we looked at a man whose story took a drastic turn, and the courage he had to trust God to write something better.Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

There are so many things that go on at Christmas time: shopping, baking, parties, traveling, new shows, new movies, gifts, and usually a lot of food!But how do we not lose Jesus in the midst of it all? Advent is about celebrating the arrival of the most important person to ever be born, and yet it is easy to make this season about all the extra stuff. Making Christmas about Christ will take real intentionality, to not lose the true meaning. This Sunday we unpacked a message called, “Lost and Found.”Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

Have you ever paused and wondered what life is really all about? Those deep, lingering questions like, “What's my purpose? What am I truly meant to do with my time on this earth?” You're not alone. Even the disciples wrestled with those same thoughts—constantly seeking clarity as Jesus revealed the “why” behind the “what.”This weekend, we peeled back the layers, getting to the heart of why we're here and what we're called to do in a new message titled, “Back to the Bread.”Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

The sin we have called out in this series is called Greed. Greed is not just a bad habit, or just a product of capitalism, it is idolatry according to the Bible and it will take much life from us. In a world that works hard to erase our definition and awareness of sin, the reality is we will never be able to ignore sin. We will always feel the ramifications sin has in our lives and the world around us. When we are not faithful to obey God, it leads to sin, which creates the stress we all feel inside. The reality is, sin is stressful and this is why money can stress us out, because we are not always obedient with it. But God gives us a tool called sacrifice to turn it all around. We unpacked what the Bible teaches us about sin and sacrifice in a message called "Stressed or Satisfied?"Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

Our series, “In Cash We Trust” was titled this way to acknowledge the reality that even as believers sometimes we struggle with really trusting God. If we're honest, there are often times when our knowledge would say, "I trust God," but our actions say, "no, actually I trust money".So why the disconnect?The answer to that was at the heart of our conversation this week. Learning what's at the core of these trust issues empowers us to break them down. We want to be a church that sees God not as a risky proposition, but as the sure thing His Word tells us He is. Tune into this week's message called, "Gambling On God."Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

“It is more blessed to give than to receive.” This is one of the verses that most people know, both inside and even outside the church. We can freely quote it to others, and we think it is generally true. In our hearts we can often hear another voice saying, “I'm not so sure, I think another pair of Vuori shorts might make me feel pretty blessed.” But this promise means it's from the mouth of Jesus, and we have to trust that Jesus always wants what is best for us. His desire truly is to bring blessings into our lives in all ways, and generosity is one of the ways that blessings flow into our lives. In week three of our series “In Cash we Trust” we looked at our relationship to money and what God really wants for us in a message called, “Sowing and Reaping”.Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

This series is about money. But really it's about trust. In fact, the money God gives us to steward in this life shows him if we truly trust him and if he can truly trust us. The Bible is very clear in Luke 16:10 that God already knows if he can trust us with more based on how faithful or trustworthy we are with what we have right now. The reality is, we often want more before giving more or practicing sacrificial generosity. But God is not concerned with how we steward what we don't have but rather what's already in our hand. What we choose to do with the money we currently have is a test, a trust test. In fact, there's only one time in all of the Bible that God says, "Test me... I dare you." And that test is with money, more specifically, the tithe. What is the tithe? And what is it not? This Sunday we jumped into one of the most widely debated principles, practices, and teachings in the Bible in a message called, "The Tithe Test."Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?
