This weekend we dove into two of the most memorized, most known, most powerful verses in all the Bible… Romans 12:1-2 tells us to "not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of our minds.”Let's be honest… The pattern of this world is pretty chaotic. It's not very hard to find bad news. Because of that it becomes easy as believers to live, not in response to the grace of God, but in reaction to the chaos of the world. When we constantly consume the chaos, we will conform to the chaos. It gets into our minds and soul and affects every part of our life. Yet Jesus, the Prince of Peace, walks into the middle of our chaos and offers relief. He urges us to live in reaction, not to chaos, but his mercy. These verses help us to better understand how what we consume shapes who we become, why chaos is constantly fighting for our attention, what it means to become a “living sacrifice.” Scripture urges us to take chaotic thoughts captive before they take us captive, and how can we allow Jesus to renew our minds and form us into people of peace. Tune into this week's message as we unpack this in a message called, “No Longer Conforming to Chaos.”Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11:15am, & 5pm (C&V Service).Connect to Captivate! - https://shorturl.at/nKxQuDownload the Captivate App to Stay Connected! - https://shorturl.at/5PfXPIf 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?

Did you know that Jesus and moms actually have a lot in common? They both can take scraps of food and make amazing meals. They both tend to use our first and last (and sometimes middle) name when we are in big trouble. And besides other fun things we talked about this Sunday, moms and Jesus both believe in us when we don't even believe in ourselves. We dove into a scripture that shows the heart of a mother that comes straight from Jesus' heart, when he believes in a disciple who had his worst moment. No matter where we go in life, the ups and downs, just like Jesus, a Godly mother will always be there waiting for us to come back to who God made us to be. And for that, they deserved to be honored, big time. We also jumped into how to honor the spiritual moms, leaders, and Jesus in our lives in a way they deserve, in a message called “What Jesus and Mom Have in Common.”Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11:15am, & 5pm (C&V Service).Connect to Captivate! - https://shorturl.at/nKxQuDownload the Captivate App to Stay Connected! - https://shorturl.at/5PfXPIf 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 jumped back into what is perhaps the most encouraging chapter in all of the Bible, Romans 8. We call it the “Great 8!” But is it too encouraging? What I mean is, sometimes if we are honest as believers, it can be hard to get excited about verses that say we are “more than conquerors,” when we feel like anything but conquerors. Sometimes life is so hard that the gap between what we read and how we live feels massive, especially in passages like Romans 8. This chapter tells us that as believers we get to “put on” victory. But instead I often put on shame, anxiety, offense, greed, etc. But as conquerors these things do not fit us anymore. And when we wear things that do not fit us, it creates the discomfort we sometimes feel in life. This week Jesus wants to put new spiritual shoes on our feet, ones that actually fit us as conquers.

This week we are in Romans 6 in our series, “A New Humanity”. This chapter unpacks the power of baptism, that when we go down into the water, it represents sin, shame, our past, etc being buried with Jesus. Sometimes in life one thing must die so another can live. So many of us are holding onto things, past mistakes, shame, old habits, things we just can't seem to shake. This is the moment where God is saying “You don't have to carry that anymore.” Throughout Scripture we see God lead people to the water for transformation. It's where the old is buried and something new rises.Tune into this week's message called, “Let The Water Work.”Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).Connect to Captivate! - https://shorturl.at/nKxQuDownload the Captivate App to Stay Connected! - https://shorturl.at/5PfXPIf 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 Luke 23, Jesus hangs on the cross for us, but he's not alone. There's two criminals that hang there on their own crosses on Jesus' right and left. As Jesus prays to the father, these two guys seem to interrupt the prayer and both have something to say to him. But their hearts could not be any more different toward Jesus. One mocks. The other asks for mercy. These two guys represent every person who has ever lived. Jesus invited one to his party, to be his “+1.”This week we unpacked this in a message called “The Prince +1.”Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).Connect to Captivate! - https://shorturl.at/nKxQuDownload the Captivate App to Stay Connected! - https://shorturl.at/5PfXPIf 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?

Pierre Stutz schreibt Bücher, gibt Kurse und hält Vorträge – allem gemein ist das Thema Mystik. Er selbst habe über grosses Leiden die Mystiker*innen entdeckt, damals im Alter von 38 Jahren in einem schweren Burnout. Als römisch-katholischer Priester wollte er stets noch «schnell die Welt retten» und merkte, dass alle Bemühung, aller Effort doch nie genug war. Dazu kam, dass ihm seit Teenager klar war: Ich bin schwul. Nach zwei Jahren Leiden konnte sich Pierre Stutz befreien und widmet sich seither der Mystik. Nicht als Theorie, sondern als erlebte Wirklichkeit, die immer wieder neu «erzweifelt werden muss» im Hier und Jetzt. Warum die Entdeckung der Stille aber nicht einfach das Ende der Reise ist, wie sich Gott in jedem Moment in uns gebiert und weshalb ein mystischer Mensch in erster Linie ein Mensch ist, der im Paradox lebt – hört ihr in dieser Folge. Es gibt zwei ältere Sendungen, die ich mit Pierre Stutz realisiert habe: eine über Langeweile, die wir mitten in der Pandemie aufgenommen hatten (https://www.srf.ch/audio/perspektiven/langeweile-eine-mystische-uebung?id=f80ae265-0c2e-4e47-935e-4bab49bd5e1e) und eine über erotische Spiritualität (https://www.reflab.ch/pierre-stutz-plaedoyer-fuer-eine-erotische-spiritualitaet/).

Jonah Hill is a film actor, writer, and filmmaker. He broke out in comedy with Superbad in 2007, before earning critical acclaim in dramatic roles in Moneyball and The Wolf of Wall Street. He transitioned into filmmaking with his directorial debut Mid90s, a raw and culturally resonant coming-of-age story that established his distinct, emotionally honest voice. Expanding across mediums, he has directed music videos, commercial campaigns, and television, while producing and developing projects through Strong Baby Productions, including the Netflix documentary Stutz. Now a multidisciplinary filmmaker, he continues to shape character-driven stories—most recently directing Outcome, scheduled for release on April 10, 2026.  ------ Thank you to the sponsors that fuel our podcast and our team: AG1 https://DrinkAG1.com/tetra ------ LMNT Electrolytes https://DrinkLMNT.com/tetra Use code 'TETRA' ------ Squarespace https://Squarespace.com/tetra Use code 'TETRA' ------ Lectio 365 https://Lectio365.com ------ Sign up to receive Tetragrammaton Transmissions https://www.tetragrammaton.com/join-newsletter

This weekend we leaned into a subject that we often feel but don't always have the words to express… The PRESSURE of every day life. Have you been feeling any pressure in life lately? From work, to bills, to chores, to kids, to fitness and health, to family, to drama with people, to our past, to our future… Life can be heavy. And yet even when we're giving life all we got, it's easy to feel like we're falling behind and not keeping up with the people or world around us. And all of that leads to… PRESSURE. But what if the life God has for us isn't built on pressure at all?This Sunday we unpacked how the Gospel doesn't just change our eternity, it begins to change what we carry right now. Unlike the world, God offers a kind of peace that isn't dependent on circumstances, performance, or how well we hold everything together. The peace of God is a deeper and steadier kind of peace that meets us right where we are, and helps us carry the things that often feel like they're crushing us. The peace of God relieves us from the pressure that's not from God.

E lura la dumengia da maraton cun las samaritanas al «Stutz» da Statz.

This week we jumped into Romans 3 in our series, “A New Humanity.”Paul, in chapter 3, gives us what some Bible scholars call the most important sentence in the Bible. It is the foundation of The Gospel, as it shows us where it all starts. Paul will encourage us to first “Look” at the human condition, to see how broken we really are on our own strength. He does this to help us “Lean” on, not our works, but Jesus' works. Do you ever lean or rely on the wrong thing? Sometimes in life we fall, get lost, or become confused or distraught. But often this happens simply because we chose to rely on the wrong source of strength in the first place. Strength is only as good as its source, and when we choose to rely on the wrong things in life, for life, we fall. Paul encourages us to look for a more reliable source for strength in our life, and thereby shows us how to lean on the Lord in a new way and powerful way. We unpacked this in this week's message called, “Look and Lean.”Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).Connect to Captivate! - https://shorturl.at/nKxQuDownload the Captivate App to Stay Connected! - https://shorturl.at/5PfXPIf 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?

No matter where you are in life, thriving or struggling, addicted to drugs or religion, too confident in yourself or not confident enough in who Jesus has made you to be… The Gospel makes you new. In fact, here is what the depths of the Gospel give us as a New Humanity… 1. A New Footing with God - “We are Justified”2. A New Family with God - “We are Adopted”3. A New Future with God - “We are Empowered”Becoming new through faith is a beautiful thing, but in the first three chapters of Romans, Paul describes the broken state of “Old Humanity.” Old Humanity does not live justified, but condemned, does not value family but radical individualism, and does not have a future with God but only focuses on the here and now. Paul makes a case to not live like the Romans do. He writes this letter to help believers live in Rome without becoming “of Rome.” I believe as he writes to them, he is writing to us, to help us live in the world but not become “of the world.”This week we unpacked this in a message called, “Rome: A Home Away From Home.”Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).Connect to Captivate! - https://shorturl.at/nKxQuDownload the Captivate App to Stay Connected! - https://shorturl.at/5PfXPIf 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 concluded our series, “The 7 Hour Walk” by jumping into “Corner” as the Captivate cultural practice of taking our faith outside the church building and into the world, neighborhood, office, and relationships God has placed us in. If we're honest, sharing Jesus with those outside the church can be a challenge. Sometimes we feel the pressure of needing to have the right answers or not wanting to hassle people with our faith. No one wants to feel like a salesman. But is that how Jesus shared the Gospel?Have you ever wondered, “How would Jesus evangelize?” Well in Luke 24 the very first thing Jesus does after he defeats death through the resurrection is just that… He witnessed, and therefore showed us how to do it. He did not hassle anyone but rather he drew near to where people were, he cared about their pain, he walked more than he talked, and he didn't force it. He went all the way with people. We unpacked this in a message called, “Witness Like Jesus Did”.Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).Connect to Captivate! - https://shorturl.at/nKxQuDownload the Captivate App to Stay Connected! - https://shorturl.at/5PfXPIf 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 continued our series “The 7 Hour Walk,” as we talked about how God wired us for divine connection as there's a big difference between coming to a church building and connecting to the church family. The sad reality of church is it's possible to come to church and still feel spiritually alone. It's possible to be surrounded by people, but not truly be connected to people. It's possible to be in close proximity to a spiritual family, but not experience intimacy with a spiritual family. And yet God never intended us to walk this life alone.We jumped into Mark 2 as we study a story of a man who needed to get to Jesus, but could not get there on his own. His friends literally had to pick him up and carry him to the Savior. Sometimes life hits us so hard we feel unable to pick ourselves up and move forward. Often we know we need to get to God, His Word, prayer, church, etc. but it's like we're paralyzed.The truth is we will all have seasons where we can't walk physically, spiritually emotionally, or relationally and we will need others to walk us to Jesus. That's Godly community. That's Godly connection. That's a Godly church. Tune into this week's message called, “The Faith of The Four,” as we learn how we can take our next step together and truly CONNECT as God designed us to.Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).Connect to Captivate! - https://shorturl.at/nKxQuDownload the Captivate App to Stay Connected! - https://shorturl.at/5PfXPIf 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?

So often in life we feel pressure to move faster, do more, and figure everything out. But Scripture doesn't invite us to run with God, it invites us to walk with Him. This series is about simplifying our discipleship and walking with Jesus in a sustainable, life giving way. It's not about adding more weight to our schedules, but recentering our lives around five foundational practices that help us grow together, with intention and clarity: Commune. Church. Connect. Contribute. Corner.We're starting this week with the first and most important step: Communing with Jesus. This is about creating space to be with Jesus personally and daily. We don't want to be rushing into activity or responsibility, but learning to slow down, listen, and walk with Him before everything else. It's where the walk begins.Before we work for Him we need to learn to walk with him.

As we head into a new year we often have plans, goals, and maybe even a "word" we're going after in the new year. But have we slowed down long enough to ask God for his plans and thoughts for us this year?Scripture tells us that God has many thoughts for us. In fact, David tells us in a Psalm we will be studying that his thoughts for us outnumber the grains of sand of the sea shore… that's a lot of thoughts! But do we know what they are? Have we treasured them as the Psalm tells us to do and sought them out so we know where we ought to go this year? Often we miss God's thoughts and goals for us in a new year because we have our own thoughts and goals. But the truth is, if our biggest goal for 2026 is something we can do without God then it's probably not from God. God wants to do something through us only he can do, but he's waiting on our “yes.” See without him we can't, but without us he often won't. God wants partnership with us, for us to lean into his will for our year. And there's no safer, happier, or more fulfilling place to be than the will of God. See 2026 is not about what we could do, it's about what we're called to do.

This episode isn't about big launches, viral moments, or overnight success.It's about the quiet work. The thinking. The testing. The pulling back. The sitting with doubt instead of bulldozing through it.In the first episode of 2026, Michelle reflects honestly on the year just gone — what worked, what didn't, and what only made sense once she stopped pushing and actually paid attention.From stepping back over Christmas to avoid burnout, to questioning growth, sponsorship, social media, and the direction of the brand, this is a grounded look at what it really takes to build something that lasts.No reinvention narrative.No “new year, new me”.Just clarity earned the hard way.In this episode, Michelle talks about:Why not publishing over Christmas was a deliberate decision — not a failureHow being busy isn't the same as being alignedWhat last year revealed about presence, attention, and nervous system burnoutThe difference between testing ideas and chasing validationWhy community and collaboration matter more than doing everything aloneLosing momentum — and why that doesn't mean you're lostThe realities of running an unfunded podcast and staying values-ledRethinking sponsorship, growth, and keeping the show independentThe thinking behind Dare Club and the Thursday daresWhy small, intentional challenges beat dramatic life overhaulsLiving in the “dip” without panicking or quittingBooks, ideas & references mentioned:Lessons inspired by Tim Ferriss and extracting meaning from lived experienceStoic thinking via Ryan Holiday and The Obstacle Is the WayReflections on ADHD from Scattered MindsThe Netflix documentary Stutz and practical mental toolsPurpose, alignment, and slowing the pace instead of forcing progressWhy this episode matters:If you're heading into 2026 feeling:unsure but not brokentired of loud advicequietly questioning the direction you're headingThis episode is for you.Because building a life isn't about constant forward motion.

In this episode of Ruled by Reason, AAI President Randy Stutz talks with antitrust thought leader Michael Kades about the latest developments at the intersection of federal, state and private antitrust enforcement. The conversation begins with a discussion of the strengths and weaknesses of federal, state and private enforcers in the current enforcement climate (5:11). It then moves to the promise of "public entity litigation," in which private counsel represent federal, state or local government entities in bringing enforcement actions they lack the resources to bring on their own (8:45). Stutz and Kades then discuss strategic complexities and possible "force multipliers" when private counsel represent a governmental agency (11:31), including with respect to bringing cases where the agency's main priority is to develop antitrust doctrine or to shift risk when high-reward cases require large upfront resource commitments (13:33). They also discuss federal claims under Section 4A of the Clayton Act, which allows the government to recover treble damages in its capacity as an injured purchaser, and why such claims may be under-utilized (16:10).    The conversation then shifts to merger enforcement, with a focus on the role of states and private plaintiffs (20:22).  Among other things, Kades identifies categories of mergers where states may have an added advantage in merger enforcement (25:14).  He also discusses how policy preferences and subject-matter emphases at the federal level can spur state and private enforcers to fill gaps in federal attention, though he cautions against trying to deduce policy preferences and attention levels solely from counting statistics (29:48). The conversation concludes with a discussion of allegations that federal enforcement has become "politicized" during the Biden and Trump administrations, and the role of the states in diffusing certain criticisms (33:13).

Lust can become a very powerful force in our lives. It has the ability to produce an appetite in us that is often uncontrolled. It tries to, even for a moment, hijack our mind, body, and behavior to drive us to do things we never thought we would do. Because of this, the apostle Paul tells us in 1 Corinthians 6 to respond to lust in a very unique way: “FLEE!” Do not just pray about it, think about it, read about it, ask about it… Run away. If we're honest, sometimes we get away, but other times we do not, as Lust creeps into our hearts, souls, and minds. And yet as we step into this conversation please know: Lust is not safe. But you are. Lust is not welcomed. But you are. The devil is a liar and there's no condemnation in Christ Jesus. This weekend unpacked this and asked Jesus to heal us in ways only he can as we go “From Lust to Purity.”Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).Connect to Captivate! - https://shorturl.at/nKxQuDownload the Captivate App to Stay Connected! - https://shorturl.at/5PfXPIf 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 Commitment Sunday, a powerful moment in our Multiply journey as we came together to trust God with our future, filled out “Multiply” cards, gave, and made new and fresh commitments to God. All throughout scripture it is evident that being committed to God and what he calls us to do is very important to him. But we live in a very non committing culture, have you noticed? More and more people hit the “maybe” button on the invite. Often we are scared to commit and want to keep our options open. But hitting the “maybe” button with God and what he asks of us will leave us spiritually frustrated and living in disobedience. This week we heard a message called “Making Commitments to God,” which talked about both spiritually powerful and practical ways to put our foot in the ground and make a new and fresh commitment to Him.Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).Connect to Captivate! - https://shorturl.at/nKxQuDownload the Captivate App to Stay Connected! - https://shorturl.at/5PfXPIf 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 talked about Greed… Just a fun, little, easy topic right? The reality is, exposing Greed can be jolting to our flesh because it has become such a part of the fabric of our culture. Even in a nation with a strong Christian heritage, sins like Greed have not only become normal, they're celebrated… Until you open God's Word.Jesus in the Gospels warns us about, not just money itself, but rather relying on money too much. See Greed isn't just about money. It's about trust. It's that quiet voice that tells us if we could just get a little more, we'd finally have enough, more comfort, more control, more certainty. But Jesus teaches that life doesn't come from what we gain, it comes from what we give. The pursuit of more can leave our souls in danger, while the lives of the generous become freer and larger. Proverbs 11:24 - “The world of generous gets larger and larger, but the world of the stingy gets smaller and smaller.”We unpacked it all this week as studied the outrageous generosity of God in a message titled, “From Greed to Generosity”.Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).Connect to Captivate! - https://shorturl.at/nKxQuDownload the Captivate App to Stay Connected! - https://shorturl.at/5PfXPIf 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?

What does it take to protect a city, lead thousands, and stay grounded in purpose?For Sheriff Rosie Cordero-Stutz, the first elected sheriff in Miami-Dade County in over 60 years, it started with a childhood calling and a single mom who worked three jobs to keep the dream alive. From patrolling high-crime streets in the 90s to leading 4,800 officers through today's complex emergencies, Sheriff Rosie shares how faith, family, and fierce dedication guide her every decision.In this episode of Common Denominator, we dive into Rosie's remarkable rise  to becoming one of the most powerful public safety officials in Florida.What you'll learn: 

This Sunday, we kicked off a new series called Curing the 7 Deadly Sins. Over the next ten weeks we'll walk through struggles that have been tripping people up for centuries—Pride, Lust, Greed, Envy, Sloth, Gluttony, Wrath. More importantly we will discover the freedom Jesus offers in their place!This week we started the conversation with Pride! Pride so often sits at the root of the others, whispering that we can handle life on our own, that God's way is optional, that His grace isn't really needed. But the truth is, pride keeps us from seeing God clearly, while humility opens our eyes.This weekend wasn't just about naming sin, it's about finding freedom. Together we learned how humility opens the door to God's best.

Who doesn't like to go out to eat? Carin Stutz gives you a behind the scenes look into the restaurant business. She is a true icon in the industry spending 40+ years as a C-level Exec. She started as a manager trainee at Wendy's International and she worked her way up to Division Vice President.  She shares stories of working with the celebrity Dave Thomas, the founder of Wendy's, as well as her brush with fame by meeting movie star George Clooney. The rest of her career was in the hot trend of "fast casual" dining, with C-Level positions at Applebee's, Chili's and another half dozen other successful chains.  Carin shares what the restaurant business is really like, as in the long hard hours, the missed vacations and family events. Yet she truly loves the industry and the people. She is making up for lost time now with lots of international travel and attending concerts every week. She is also giving back to her industry. She helped start a wildly successful non-profit and serves on lots of very worthwhile boards. She has dedicated her (un)retirement to giving back!

Have you ever noticed how much time we spend measuring things in life? We keep track of promotions, paychecks, grades, likes, followers, even steps on our watches. Measuring isn't the problem, it's just that sometimes we're measuring the wrong things.That's exactly what Jesus addresses in Matthew 25. In His story of the talents, the Master doesn't reward the servant for results, fame, or accomplishments. He celebrates something else entirely. This Sunday we continued in our series MULTIPLY, looking at how we recalibrate our hearts to heaven's scoreboard and rediscover the joy of living faithfully with what God has placed in our hands in a message called, “What the Master Measures”.Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).Connect to Captivate! - https://shorturl.at/nKxQuIf 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 are…. 7!!!! This weekend we celebrated a special B-DAY!

This week we took a look at when the disciples had their first real run-in with the law. After preaching about Jesus in the streets, Peter and John get arrested and now stand before the most powerful leaders in their world, the guys who sent Jesus to the cross. They probably should have been terrified... but they weren't. They stood their ground and were bold in their faith. In fact, this stunned the religious leaders so much that they even decided to let Peter and John go, calling them in Greek, “idiotes.” Any guesses on what that word is in English? Following Jesus did something to them. It changed the way they thought. It changed their logic. Jesus awakened their hearts and minds to His Kingdom and it changed what they were afraid of, it changed what they were willing to risk, and it changed their definition of success. When we think about success or failure in life, what do we think of? Who or what taught us to think the way we think?Even if we love and believe in Jesus, sometimes our logic and ways of thinking have nothing to do with Jesus. Maybe we at times have learned a little too much from this world and need to be reawakened to Jesus' paradoxical way of living. We unpacked this in a message called, “Idiotes for Jesus.”Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).Connect to Captivate! - https://shorturl.at/nKxQuIf 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?

You ever feel like you're doing all the right things spiritually... showing up, serving, trying your best, but something still feels off? Like you're present, but not really awake?This Sunday, we looked at one of the wildest stories in the early church, a moment in Acts 20 where a guy literally falls asleep during church and falls out of a window. This story is way more than just a cautionary tale about nodding off during a sermon, it's a powerful picture of what happens when our hearts grow tired, distracted, or disconnected from the presence of God.We talked about how easy it is to drift into a kind of sleepy spirituality, where you're close to the things of God, but not fully alive to them. More importantly, we unpacked how God gently and powerfully calls us back to life.Because here's the truth, we don't follow a sleepy Savior. We follow a Risen King and He's calling His church to wake up, not with shame, but with purpose. Tune into this week's message called, "Sleepy Spirituality."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?

On this episode of Peloton People, William is joined by Jenny and Heather as they discuss all things Peloton, Life, Fitness, and more!!!

What if the secret to creating a truly inclusive workplace wasn't found in grand policies or mission statements, but in the small, intentional actions leaders take every single day? In this episode, we're joined by Jonathan Stutz, President of Global Diversity Partners and co-author of The Daily Practices of Inclusive Leaders, to explore how simple, consistent behaviors can reshape organizational culture. Jonathan introduces the concept of "dropping inclusive pebbles"—micro actions that, over time, build environments where people feel genuinely seen, heard, and valued.Drawing from his personal experiences growing up in Atlanta during the civil rights movement, Jonathan shares a deeply personal and professional perspective on why inclusion must come before diversity. He compares inclusive workplaces to welcoming homes rather than “leaky buckets” where diverse talent slips away. Through practical strategies like hosting meaningful one-on-ones, using the "pause button" to interrupt bias in meetings, and applying the “platinum rule,” he gives leaders at every level clear, actionable tools to foster connection and safety.Jonathan's core message is simple but powerful: inclusive leadership is leadership. These aren't side practices—they're essential for building teams that perform, innovate, and stay engaged. In today's diverse world, the ability to cultivate belonging is no longer optional.

This Sunday, we dove into Acts 19, where Paul brings the Gospel into one of the most idol-filled cities in the ancient world: Ephesus. It's a wild and powerful story where revival breaks out, but not before the truth challenges the culture head-on.We talked about how idols aren't just golden statues or ancient gods. They're often good things we've given ultimate value like success, relationships, family, comfort, security. And while they may promise peace, they can't deliver like Jesus can.We unpacked how easy it is to let the good things in life quietly take the place of God and how Jesus lovingly calls us back to something deeper, freer, and far more lasting.

Te traigo 15 coches que, si no los conoces… ¡deberías! #coches #cochesclasicos Conviértete en miembro de este canal para disfrutar de ventajas: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBG3pvXhocK7_GjeIx2sUeg/join 1. AC Ace (1953). Un modelo que ahora se vuelve a fabricar y cuyas primeras entregas están previstas para este mismo verano. 2. Amilcar C6 (1926). Todos hemos leído y escuchado que la gran Isadora Duncan perdió la vida cuando su pañuelo se enrollo en el eje trasero del Bugatti conducido por Benoit Falchetto… todo es verdad salvo que el coche no era un Bugatti sino un Amilcar. 3. Bristol Fighter (2004). El Bristol Fighter de cuatro ruedas cuenta con un motor V10 de 8 litros y 532 CV, que suben a 660 en la versión S, para un peso de apenas 1.600 kg. Y no sé si es bonito, pero impresionante, sí. 4. Checker Marathon A12 (1975). Conocía este coche por las revistas, pero cuando fui a Nueva York estaba deseando subirme a uno, nada más parecía más norteamericano que este coche, ni siquiera la Coca Cola. 5. DAF 66 (1972). En la actualidad la marca holandesa DAF es muy conocida por sus camiones, pero también fabricó coches y unos coches muy originales. Aunque los hubo con motor de origen DAF estos modelos enseguida montaron motores de origen Renault de 1.1 y 1.3 litros y entre unos 45 y casi 60 CV. 7. Donkervoort D8 GTO-JD70 (2025). Seguimos con coches holandeses… que no es que haya habido muchos. Joop Donkervoort comenzó haciendo coches inspirados en los Lotus Super Seven, pero muy evolucionados. 7. Facel Vega Facel II (1962). El coche no era nada malo, pues resultaba bonito, potente gracias a su V8 Chrysler de más de 6 litros y 390 CV. Pero faltó marketing, servicio postventa y la marca, tras su último intento, el Facelia, cerró sus puertas. 8. Hillman Imp (1963). Este modelo me resulta simpático, pues su estética está inspirada en el innovador Chevrolet Corvair, pero en un coche que también contaba con motor posterior, pero era mucho, pero mucho más pequeño. 9. Hispano-Alemán Castilla (1972). La historia de este coche, como todas las historias que rodean al fundador de la marca, Ben Heidrich, parecen sacadas de una telenovela. 10. Horch 830 BL (1937). El automóvil que utilizó el General Charles De Gaulle en el famoso desfile por los Campos Elíseos el 18 de junio de 1945, tras la rendición de Alemania. 11. Iso Rivolta Lele (1969). Iso fabricó motos de gran calidad, mi padre tuvo una, motocarros de enorme éxito y… coches de lujo. En 1969 presente este Lele con la idea de competir con Ferrari, Lamborghini y Maserati… ambición no le faltaba a Piero Rivolta, hijo de Renzo Rivolta, fundador de la marca. 12. Jensen Interceptor (1966). A mí el coche me parece bonito a rabiar, original, casi desconocido y… no le he probado… así que, si alguien tiene uno por ahí, ¿me lo dejaría? 12+1. Marcos Mantara LM600 (1993). Jem Marsh y el aerodinamista Frank Costin decidieron crear una marca para hacer pequeños deportivos al estilo inglés… más tarde decidieron con sus ligeros coches hacer sus “pinitos” en competición… pero con el tiempo se fueron “viniendo arriba” y un día decidieron conquistar Le Mans. 14. Noble M400 (2006). Uno de los coches más modernos de esta selección y que también tuvo cierto éxito en competición. 15. Stutz Blackhawk (1971). Obra de Virgil Exner que contó con la ayuda del diseñador italiano Ghia y usó componentes de General Motors. Estaban de alguna manera inspirados en los clásicos Stutz, pero actualizados.

In Acts 16, we saw how Paul and Silas worshipped their way through the darkest of nights. Their situation was hopeless by all accounts, but they didn't wait for a victory to start worshipping. They worshipped before they saw anything change. And when they did, the ground shook, chains broke, and lives were changed.Some of us are in a midnight moment right now, and this week's message was a reminder that midnight praise still works. It may not feel like the time to lift your hands, but those might be the moments that matter most. God loves your worship when it's costly. When it's not convenient. When you choose it anyway.We unpacked all of this in this week's message called “Worship at Night.”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 this unique, unfiltered, and completely unedited episode, I chat with my brilliant life coach, Hana Michels, about burnout: what it is, how it shows up differently for different people, and how to fight it when you aren't able to quit your job and rest for a year. Hana Michels has been written up in the LA Times, LA Weekly and others.  She received her life coaching certification from the Wainwright Global Coaching Institute. She has also been trained in The Tools methodology & techniques (recently featured in the Netflix documentary Stutz) by Barry Michels, co-author of The Tools and Coming Alive, whom she can't pretend is not her father because they share a last name. She knows how hard it is to form and keep habits and is here for anyone who needs to do so. She works hard to help clients with whatever they wish to address, including overall discipline and organization, talking through creative ideas and/or help bringing specific projects to fruition, overall mood and emotional regulation, finding your own personal answers to key life decisions, mindfulness techniques, enduring life's transitions or difficulties, rekindling passion for a creative practice, communication between couples, communication between work partners, adapting personalizing and fitting a tools practice into your life, adapting personalizing and fitting a shadow work practice into your life, combating part x (also part of The Tools methodology,) weird family stuff, normal but still difficult family stuff, accountability and help when trying to establish new habits, accountability and help when trying to replace or eliminate old habits, and more!Whew, that was a lot! To work with Hana or learn more about her work, visit her linktree: https://linktr.ee/sparkcreativecoachingHana's suggestions for dealing with burnout:If you're creatively burnt out and unable to create, try a brand new art form you know you'll be bad at so there's no pressure!If you're plagued by dwelling on the future or the past, try mindfulness and getting in touch with your five senses. If you have a lot of baggage from childhood, look into the books that exist on this topic (there are so many - just start a Google search)!If productivity guilt is weighing you down, check out Devon Price, PhD's book "Laziness Does Not Exist."If your nervous system feels overloaded, try breathing exercises while having your finger on your pulse so that you can feel the heartbeat slowing or modify the exercise so you're not holding your breath so long. And don't hold your breath too long, or you'll pass out. Splash cold water on yourself. If grounding helps, carry something in your pocket that has an interesting texture. If you are overvaluing anyone's opinion of you, create a silly visual to represent that person (instead of picturing people naked -- weird!). To learn more and get more great resources: Connect with me on LinkedIn Join our global Useful L&D Community Work with me or see what I'm working on with Useful Stuff

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?

I had the great honor of writing a book with legendary psychiatrist Phil Stutz. Now that True and False Magic is out, I got to ask him about some of the concepts that have remained on my mind: the lie of certainty, the purpose of creativity, why some of the hardest parts of life are also what makes it compelling and fun, and why he believes I should be 10 percent more evil (and maybe you should, too). For our book, more of Phil Stutz's work (including The Tools and Coming Alive), the documentary Stutz, and the rest of the show notes, head over to my Substack. Learn more about your ad choices.
