     | 3,856 views

    I THOUGHT THAT THIS MORNING, WE WOULD FIND OUT WHAT GOD DID WHEN THE LIGHTS WENT OUT. WE PROBABLY HUNKERED DOWN, LIT CANDLES, PULLED OUT FLASHLIGHTS, SEARCH FOR OTHER HOUSING, OR A VARIETY OF OTHER THINGS. WHILE SEARCHING THE SCRIPTURE, I FOUND SEVERAL

    The Gospel of John states that God has sent the Word to us in Jesus. In him is the originator of good news about what life can be when we receive it in on his terms.

    Scripture The Advent and Christmas season focus on the coming and birth of Jesus Christ. We read and sing about the baby Jesus, angels, shepherds, infancy stories, and wise men. It is all marvelous stuff, but what does it really mean? Today’s Scripture text for the sermon explains it. John 1:1-18 ...read more

    A Children's Sunday sermon focusing on the reality of light and the illusion of darkness.

    Today you’ve noticed that we’ve been talking a lot about light. It’s because that is the theme for the summer program this year but also because the concept of light is so important to the church. Jesus used it as a metaphor to describe to people who He was and it still works ...read more

    A sermon about the love of God.

    “Like It or Not” John 3:14-21 A friend of mine told me about an experience he had when he was trying to get his then six-year-old son to bed. Upset that his father was putting him to bed earlier than he wanted to go, Benjamin said, “Daddy, I hate you.” Benjamin’s father replied, “Ben, I’m ...read more

    The betrayers come into the garden of Gethsemane with the force and arms they thought necessary to seize Jesus. He faces this dark hour directly yet with restraint and compassion.

    LUKE 22: 47-53 [JESUS’ LAST NIGHT SERIES] THE BETRAYAL AND ARREST OF JESUS (Matthew 26:47–56; Mark 14:43–50; John 18:3–11) Luke now turns his attention from the spiritual warfare in the Garden to the arrest of Jesus.

    Jesus said, "I am the Light of the World." This is your Savior who died for you. He transforms us; he leads us. He is Light for everyone. Do you have him in your life?

    When we talk about Advent, we must begin by talking not about Jesus at first, but about the world he came to. Jesus came into a broken world, to live life with us, among the ruins.

    Psalm 119 is all about God's Word, but is the Word an instruction manual with every detail of life enumerated for us, or is it more a character sketch of the most beautiful and wonderful being ever?

    Psalm 119 has been called the Mt. Everest of the Psalms. It is the longest psalm and the longest chapter in the Bible. What I love about it is that it is all about God’s Word. And that’s what we are about here at Calvary Chapel: teaching God’s Word. I’ve heard a slur about ...read more

    You ask me what is the most important feature or belief of the Christian faith, and I will say without a doubt, it is the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Disprove it, and the entire belief system disintegrates.

    The Resurrection Mark 16:1-7 The King is Alive John 3:16: “God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever will believe in Him will not perish, but have everlasting and eternal life.” 1 Peter 3:18: “For Christ also suffered for sins once for all, the righteous for the ...read more

    Jesus is Light and the Light exposes all sin. For those who embrace the Light and repents, Jesus brings salvations, for others who hide from the Light and tries to cover the Light, the Light brings judgment.

    There are seven wonderful titles of our Lord Jesus Christ in this opening chapter of the Gospel of John. He is called (1) the Word (vv. 1, 14); (2) the Light (vv. 5, 7); (3) the Lamb of God (vv. 29, 36); (4) the Son of God (vv. 34, 49); (5) the Christ (Messiah) (v. 41); (6) the King of Israel ...read more

    Out of the darkness comes the light. Every workday, at dawn’s early light, Kevin Napier crawls into a long, black hole. Coal mining is safer than it used to be, though it’s still dusty and dirty, and there’s always concern that something terrible could happen deep inside a cramped shaft.

    Ephesians 5:8–14 NRSV 8 For once you were darkness, but now in the Lord, you are light. Live as children of light— 9 for the fruit of the light is found in all that is good and right and true. 10 Try to find out what is pleasing to the Lord. 11 Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but ...read more
