Ep 302Heroes, Week 1: Pants on Fire // Josh Crum

Thanks for listening! Want to know more about Calvary? Visit calvary-church.com to get connected. The actions and skills of our heroes can feel unattainable. But the Bible shows us a different kinds of heroes, ones who were ordinary and flawed, just like us. These biblical heroes recognized their need for strength outside themselves, and God used them in extraordinary ways. Ordinary people, just like us, accomplished extraordinary things. But what made these characters truly heroic? They did not simply point to themselves but instead to the ultimate hero, Jesus. Live on Sunday, September 11, 2022.

Ep 301Ekklesia, Week 8: Community of Conversion // Charles Zimmerman

Thanks for listening! Want to know more about Calvary? Visit calvary-church.com to get connected. Do you know what ekklesia means? The English word “church” has a number of meanings, most of which are religious. But the Greek word ekklesia – the Bible word translated for “church” – is different. Non-Christians in the first century wouldn’t have thought of it as a religious word. To them it simply meant “a gathering” or “an assembly.” In the New Testament, church is often used for something new and specifically Christian. The writers of the New Testament chose ekklesia to describe this new thing because its everyday meaning—assembly, gathering—was a good fit for their purposes. The mission of the church is to point people to Jesus – what he said and did, and what he promises to do. As we often say, we are simply to continue what Jesus started. Right up front, we have to remember that it’s Jesus who makes it possible for his followers to live out his mission as they follow him and are energized by his Spirit. Establishing, building, and developing the church is high on Jesus’ priority list. In fact, we could say that the church is what Jesus started! Therefore, if we are to Continue What Jesus Started, we must be about church as well. How can ekklesia shape our definition and view of what it means to be about church in 2022? What mission, values, and practices do we pull from this new understanding? How will this change our community or our relationship with God? Let’s tackle these questions and concepts together as we dive into our brand new series, Ekklesia: The Ancient Future Church. Live on Sunday, September 4, 2022.

Ep 280Come and See, Week 10: I Am Thirsty // Carlos Velez

Thanks for listening! Want to know more about Calvary? Visit calvary-church.com to get connected. Two of the most important questions of our faith are Who is Jesus and Who are we? These questions are so crucial that if we get the answers correct, we have life pretty much figured out. But if we get the answers incorrect, we ride an emotional roller coaster where life never makes sense. We often find our identity wrapped up in the preferences, polarization, and politics around us. How can we lift our eyes above the noise to focus on Jesus instead? Christ told his first followers to come and see! He calls us as well to come and see, think, follow, change, and wonder. We can do just that by focusing on the words Jesus uses to define and describe himself. John records seven statements that Jesus makes concerning his identity, the seven I Ams calling back to God’s words to Moses, “I am who I am!” in Exodus 3:14. These I Ams are not primarily definitions, but rather descriptions of who and what Jesus is in relation to human beings. It is only in union with him that believers receive his salvation and are reminded that Christ is needed for us to have life. Live on Sunday, April 10, 2022.

Ep 268Come and See, Week 4: I Am the Light of The World // Charles Zimmerman

Thanks for listening! Want to know more about Calvary? Visit calvary-church.com to get connected. Two of the most important questions of our faith are Who is Jesus and Who are we? These questions are so crucial that if we get the answers correct, we have life pretty much figured out. But if we get the answers incorrect, we ride an emotional roller coaster where life never makes sense. We often find our identity wrapped up in the preferences, polarization, and politics around us. How can we lift our eyes above the noise to focus on Jesus instead? Christ told his first followers to come and see! He calls us as well to come and see, think, follow, change, and wonder. We can do just that by focusing on the words Jesus uses to define and describe himself. John records seven statements that Jesus makes concerning his identity, the seven I Ams calling back to God’s words to Moses, “I am who I am!” in Exodus 3:14. These I Ams are not primarily definitions, but rather descriptions of who and what Jesus is in relation to human beings. It is only in union with him that believers receive his salvation and are reminded that Christ is needed for us to have life. Live on Sunday, February 27, 2022.

Ep 252Impact, Week 13: Gospel Leadership // Charles Zimmerman

Thanks for listening! Want to know more about Calvary? Visit calvary-church.com to get connected. As we connect with God and are impacted by him, he sends us to connect and impact others with the gospel. 1 John is notoriously difficult to outline because the same themes seem to appear and reappear in different ways and with different connections. Many contemporary commentators have followed Robert Law in seeing three tests that lead to John’s purpose of confidence in salvation. Truth – the doctrinal test, love – the relational test, & obedience – the life test. John and all followers of Jesus have been impacted by God and that impact manifests itself in our lives by radically transforming how we understand truth, how we are loved and love others and how we are shaped and live under the word of god. Live on Sunday, December, 7th.
