    Romans 4: The End of Boasting | Shawn Stone | Captivate Church

    Life runs on scoreboards. Followers, funding, fitness, career wins—we measure everything. From childhood we’re taught the same lesson: produce, perform, prove yourself. If your score is high enough, you matter. If not… try harder. But what if the gospel completely shatters that system? This Sunday we were in Romans 4 and the story of Abraham—a man who had more spiritual accomplishments than almost anyone in history. If anyone could boast before God, it was him. Yet Scripture says something shocking: “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.” Not earned. Not achieved. Credited. Paul shows us that our standing with God doesn’t come from our performance, but from faith in what Jesus has done. Salvation isn’t a wage God owes—it’s a gift God gives. If you’re tired of trying to measure up, come hear the good news: in the gospel, the scorekeeping ends—and we discover the only boast that can actually save.

    Romans 3: Look And Lean | Weston Stutz | Captivate Church

    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).

    Romans 2: Religion Can’t Save | Shawn Stone | Captivate Church

    Good news or bad news—what do you want first? Most of us want the good news first… but what if we can’t truly receive the good news until we’re honest about the bad? This week we continue our study through Romans in our new series, “A New Humanity” as we dive into Romans 2. We will be talking about a difficult, but freeing truth: religion can’t save you. We can know the Bible, go to church, avoid the “big sins,” and still miss God entirely. Romans 1 talks about those people out there, but Romans 2 turns the mirror on church people—the moral, the religious, the well-behaved. The ones who look fine on the outside, but are just as broken on the inside. This message isn’t about trying harder – It’s about finally being honest. About realizing God’s kindness isn’t approval, it’s an invitation. If you’re tired of pretending, tired of performing, or tired of feeling like you’re “almost” okay with God, this message is for you. Jesus didn’t come to improve religious people, but to rescue sinners. Tune into this week’s message titled, “Religion Can’t Save”.

    Romans 1: A Home Away From Home | Weston Stutz | Captivate Church

    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).
