The Doctor told Laine on Tuesday that Joseph Judah could enter this world any day now. Her official due date is September 28. I have my cell phone with me at all times waiting for that phone call. Very exciting times!
"Uncommon Jesus" is our focus for Sunday. Whenever we talk about Jesus and study His attributes, we can anticipate moving to a new level of faith. We are going to have a wonderful experience in our celebration of worship. I’m looking forward to sharing these life changing moments with you.
John 1:14 The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.

Uncommon Connection
Labels: Capital Christian Center, Daily Devotional, Rick Cole, Sacramento church, Small Group, Uncommon Message
We had an incredible day this past Sunday! I am thankful for the way the Lord orchestrates things for His purposes and our good. He loves us so much and desires to bring us to health and strength. If you missed it, please take 35 minutes of your day and check it out. You can access the experience from Sunday at this link http://ccconline.cc/video_detail.html?id=449.
Daily devotional thoughts and words of encouragement are also available through the week at http://cccdailygear.blogspot.com.
Have you ever thought of hosting a small group? Our fall sessions are beginning soon and there is a great opportunity awaiting you to facilitate relationships and learning that will have eternal results. We provide the teaching and training and you provide the love and support. If you would like to grow through serving others, please contact Jason Batt at 856-5683, email jasonb@ccconline.cc, or stop by the Fellowship kiosk on Sunday morning.
Our journey continues on Sunday with a look at "Uncommon Connection." When we walk with each other and share life’s joys and sorrows, we receive the strength and wisdom we need for each new day. Can’t wait to see you this week!
1 Peter 3:8-9 Finally, all of you, live in harmony with one another; be sympathetic, love as brothers, be compassionate and humble. Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult, but with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing.

Significant Weekend
Labels: 9/11, Capital Christian Center, Capital Chrstiain School Football, Friends, Rick Cole, Sacramento church
This is a significant weekend in front of us. We are reminded again to pray for our leaders and the welfare of our country as we remember the terrorist attacks of 9/11. It is still sobering to think about the events of that fateful day. The best response we can have is to turn to God in prayer and ask for the revelation of His love around the world.
Friday night also brings us to the first football game of the year for our High School. It will be a great night of fellowship and school spirit. If you are able, come on out and enjoy the evening while encouraging our team in their efforts.
Sunday provides a great opportunity to invite our friends to church. We will be focusing on the hope we have for healing for those who have been hurt or disillusioned by their interactions with the church. We want to represent God properly but there are times we simply miss the mark. Offenses occur. I want to apologize to those who have been hurt by their church experience and project a future of healing and restoration. It is going to be a great day for sure. Please consider inviting someone to attend with you this week.
Hebrews 12:14-15
Make every effort to live in peace with all men and to be holy; without holiness no one will see the Lord. See to it that no one misses the grace of God and that no bitter root grows up to cause trouble and defile many.

Back to Church Day
Labels: Back to Church, Capital Christian Center, Friends, Rick Cole, Sacramento church, Uncommon Message
We are just one week away from Back to Church Day at CCC. There are many people around us who have attended church in the past but are not engaged today. A recent study revealed that eight of ten unchurched persons would come to church if they were invited. Yet, only 21 percent of active church attenders invite anyone to church in the course of a year. An incredible opportunity lies before us! Make the effort over the next few days to invite someone to our Back to Church Day on September 13.
We have an Uncommon Message of love to share. This week we will focus on getting that message out where it is needed. In these troubled times, people are looking for hope. They are looking for meaning. They are longing for peace and security. It is not so much what we say, but how we love that will influence them toward faith in God.
Matthew 5:14-16 (NIV)
You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.
