Calvary Presbyterian Church

The risen Jesus offers peace to the anxious, evidence to the doubting, mission to the waiting, and forgiveness to the believing.

Only Jesus has the words of eternal life and there is no one else who can satisfy our greatest needs for truth and joy.

Two controversial truths that emerge from Jesus’s signs and teachings (and that remain controversial today) are, nonetheless, a source of great comfort and thanksgiving for the Christian.

Jesus is the bread of life. Whoever believes in him will have eternal life and never be hungry.

Our needs surpass our resources and the situation calls for Jesus—the one who alone accomplishes our eternal rescue and satisfies our greatest hunger.

David Keddie is a Ruling Elder at  Hope Presbyterian Church  (PCA) in Lawrenceville, NJ. For more than 20 years, he has served on the staff of Princeton Christian Fellowship, a student ministry at Princeton University. He recently completed his Master of Divinity degree at Westminster Theological Seminary.

The evidence is overwhelming to demonstrate the identity of Jesus as the Son of God. Multiple witnesses provide conclusive testimony. How will you plead?

People are desperate to find a sense of true, lasting rest for their anxious souls—an eternal “Sabbath of the Soul” for the spiritual insomniac. Where should we look?

One of the core characteristics of a healthy church is the radical generosity of God’s grace to us in Jesus Christ resulting in our radical generosity toward others.

A desperate man is driven by suffering to find healing and rest in Jesus.

A single conversation reveals the mission of Jesus and the power of the gospel.

Will anything ever satisfy the deep needs of our heart and answer our biggest questions? Jesus reveals himself to be the only satisfying answer. 

The most important question in the world is: Will you believe what Jesus says about himself.

Rev. David Harr (the original Pastor Harr) is the younger, but wiser brother of Pastor Tom. He is a graduate of Lafayette College (B.A. in Physics) and Westminster Theological Seminary (MDiv). Since 2005, he has been the pastor of Immanuel Presbyterian Church (OPC) in Medford, NJ. He and his wife, Maggie, have four children. 

The frustration of imperfect and evil leaders points us toward a greater promise of an eternal King who arrived at Christmas.

The death of God’s prophet is not the end, but actually part of the plan to rescue God’s people.

Psalm 125:2 - “The Lord surrounds his people, from this time forth and forevermore."

All the wealth and power in the world can’t make you clean in God’s sight. He is the only true source of eternal healing and riches. 11/23/25

  The experience of the Shumanite woman shows us that if the resurrection is true, then you have every reason to get (and keep) your hopes up.

Tim Shorey was in pastoral ministry for over forty years, serving in New Jersey and Pennsylvania until he was diagnosed with cancer over three years ago. He has authored several books, the most recent of which is From a High Mountain: 31 Reflections on the Character and Comfort of God (based on Isaiah 40).  He and Gayline, his wife of 47 years, have six children and 14 grandchildren.

God knows the depth of our desperate needs and provides abundantly for them.

Because of Jesus, Christians can (like Elijah), face the end of this life without fear and with confidence that it is the beginning of life with God in our eternal home.

When Israel’s King unexpectedly repents of great evil, we are reminded of the forgiveness available to even the most wicked sinners who genuinely submits in faith to the King Jesus.
