My name is Kory Capps. I’m married to my beautiful wife Elizabeth. We have three awesome little guys: Karter (12), Jonny (11), and Hudson (10). We also have an amazing daughter named Adele (4). I am humbled and honored to serve our nation and our nation’s warriors as a military chaplain.
I created this site as an expression of worship. Writing is the key way I pro
cess God’s Word and connect with Him. Thinking and writing about the gospel is one of my greatest joys. The conviction that lies beneath all that is written on this blog is a simple one. I believe that God has chosen to reveal himself most clearly in the gospel.
To be more clear. I believe that in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, we behold God. The invisible God becomes visible in the birth of Jesus. As we see Jesus we see God. The entire life of Christ is a glimpse into the life and heart of God. At the cross, the veil is torn and God is seen more clearly than ever before. It is at this most unlikely place, the cross, that we are startled to see a God of deep love, shocking grace, and glorious humility.
My desire in this blog is to think hard about the gospel in order to see God more clearly. I believe that beholding the splendor of God in the gospel leads to explosive joy. I believe it obliterates shackles and brings freedom. I believe it fosters worship that is genuine and intelligent. I know it changes people, I am proof of that. As I meditate and write on various theological topics, I will make it my aim to bring all things into dialogue with the gospel.
Brother,
Pretty impresive! good cache of videos,nice fam. photo, and good articles. Look forward to adding to it. As front liners we need this for our own encouragement and as ammunition for our daily battles in seeing kids transformed to life through Jesus Christ.
Hi, Kory & Elizabeth,
Just wanted to send a note. Heather and I have been following your ministry through your letters, and just rejoice in who you are and what you have been doing.
It has been a long time since we have been in contact, but you both have been thought of as well as prayed for so frequently. You are a part of our “history” and dearly loved even though we only met face-to-face so briefly.
We have seen how God has been using you and growing you in His kingdom, and we absolutely rejoice in the goodness and faithfulness of God.
You both are in our hearts,
Ruth and Heather Miller
Kory,

This blog rocks!!!
Kory, I saw your note to Ted Johnston and his reply, and come over to poke around. Nice stuff! You have clear prose and you’re focused on the Savior. I look forward to reading more. Keep on worshiping with words.
Thanks for the encouragement!
I saw your Christus Victor: the Gospel in Poem on facebook and was totally blown away. I have sent it to all my friends and colleagues. What can I say but well produced, profound, riveting and gets directly to the heart of the Gospel. Thank you for a great witness to the grace of God!
Doug, thanks so much for the encouragement. I am thrilled that you found the Christus Victor poem helpful and that you found the site.
Great meeting you today, Kory!
Looking forward to reading your posts!
Blessings,
-Emmanuel
At our church service in a retirement home we have the pledge of allegiance and then ask God too bring all of our men, women, children and families home safely. Thanks for your service and may God Bless you.
