Celebrating 8 Years of Captivate | Weston Stutz

​​

This Sunday we celebrated 8 years of Captivate Church and stepped into a brand new series called, “W8 ON THE LORD” with a message about what it looks like to trust God in the waiting. If we're honest, waiting is hard. We live in a world that tells us everything should happen faster… getting answers, reaching success, experiencing breakthroughs. Our world does not value waiting… but God does. When we’re waiting God is watching. He wants to know if he can trust us with what he is waiting to give us. And we’re not alone in the waiting, every biblical character that followed the Lord had to wait for breakthroughs and highlights.

​

This week we took a look at the life of David, perhaps the most talked about and celebrated character in the Bible outside of Jesus. David’s highlights are well documented and talked about and yet only make up about 2% of his story. David had to wait a lot, and specifically for this week, he had to wait in caves while hiding from his enemies. And yet it’s in the cave of waiting where God forms him into the King of Israel that was after God’s heart. Before he was the King of Israel, he learned to be the King of the Cave and praise the Lord all the way through it.

And as we celebrate eight years of Captivate, there is no better reminder for where we're going next: we don't want to rush ahead of God. We want to wait on the Lord and let Him lead us into everything He has for our future.
