Oh what a fun month! Not only are we approaching the greatest holiday ever (Christmas) but we are involved in two interesting class subjects. Our focus this month is on Eschatology & Sexual Character. I’m not sure how these two topics landed in the same month but how fitting it is! I often prayed a prayer like this as a young lad, “God, please don’t come back until I get married Amen.” The word “married” was code word for sex. Be honest, you probably prayed the same prayer or still pray that prayer currently.
We began a “Sexual Character” series in our YP717 service and I felt it necessary to continue this topic throughout the month with our Capital Interns. It is our responsibility and privilege to live sexually pure and walk in the freedom and fulfillment of God. Coupled with this teaching we are engaged in a challenging course on Eschatology by Dr. Stan Fleming entitled “Servants of the Third Watch”.

Interns show up wearing your favorite Holiday sweater. Also, bring a homemade gift ready to exchange. Yes, you have to make something! Be creative! See you at 10.
Happy Thanksgiving to the greatest Interns in the world! We are extremely proud of each one of you! God is doing miraculous things in your life. We love you and hope you all have a great week with family & friends! Get some rest! (serious)

Beginning November 12th we will begin a new Capital INTERN study intensive. The primary emphasis of this study is on pursuing God in the areas of prayer, praise, and prophecy. The importance of simply learning to pursue God is the topic of the introductory session, followed by sessions that focus more on aspects of prayer, praise (worship), and prophecy, either distinctly or in conjunction with the others. We will post portions of lecture, so feel free to check back in from time to time.
Let us hear what God is doing and saying in your life (Interns). As we spend time waiting on God and seeking His face, He opens our ears to hear and changes our hearts. What is the Holy Spirit quickening to you in this season of your life?
All Interns on deck! This week we will spend our time preparing for our community outreach. For the last few years we have had the awesome opportunity to reach out to individuals and families in and around our community! Join us as we serve our community, demonstrating the love of God.
Refer to syllabus tab for class outline and assignment(s). Post feedback regarding this weeks intensive, ACTS.
Capital Interns make sure you sign up for at least one prayer watch this week. They will take place at 6am, noon and 6pm Monday through Saturday. Check out the Capital Prayer blog for more info…
If you were to ask an intern how long they’ve been in Capital Interns they would probably say three months. However, we’ve only been going a little less then a month! From week one until now our Interns have worked tirelessly and passionately from one project and trip to the next! Week one: Encounter & Retreat, Week two: GCb Live, Week three: Early Church History Intensive, Week four: Washington D.C. at the National Prayer Center.
So, this week we’ll have some chill time and prep for our BIG Capital Intern YARD SALE!

The Interns were divided up into teams. The assignment was to act out an event or represent a person from early church history. Teams were judged on three categories; creativity, custom & content. All in all it was pretty cheesy but very entertaining at the same time! Team scores: Dan-37, Alaina-28, Sarah-26, Kenrick-24.5
Thanks for all your help last weekend with our GCBlive youth conference! You guys rock!
Get ready Interns! Our “Early Church History” Intensive is taking place Wednesday-Friday. We have the pleasure of having Dr. Stan Fleming with us all week! You can check out the syllabus tab at the top of the page for more details on class content.
Our Capital Intern 08/09 year started last Thursday. We headed out of town with some clothes, sleeping bag and a toothbrush for a few days. The goal was to spend some time away from the noise and distractions of a normal day and focus our attention on Jesus. From deep times of worship to meditating and study of scripture, I hope we did just that. My charge to each Intern was to show up this weekend with a blank slate. Leave preconceived ideas at home. Expect God to do a new thing! The Gospel of Luke says that with God nothing is impossible! This is becoming our conviction.
Thank you to all involved in making our Encounter weekend successful.
In exactly one week we will be launching in to our 2008/2009 Capital Intern year. Next Thursday we are heading out of town to spend a few days seeking the face of God together! Get ready to worship, pray & invest time in the Text. Take time this week to abide (John 15) with the Holy Spirit, ready your heart to receive the implanted word of God. This will be a year of deep spiritual insight, refreshed vision and break through in your life. We are always at the right place at the right time doing the right thing because God orders our steps!
