Calvary Church Bentonville

God gives us the ability to choose whether or not we yield to Him. When we yield to God's will, He invites us into the process of growing His kingdom on earth. Unity in the body of Christ releases His power to work in and through the church.

Am I a disciple? Who am I discipling? Jesus gives several comparisons to help us understand what true discipleship looks like. What does it mean to love the Lord? Jesus is asking if you are in it for the long haul and have you truly weighed the cost?

We should have a hunger for God! God's greatest are those who are longing for Him. We are not to settle and sit in our misery for the rest of our lives. God has more for us! God has more for you!

God is calling us and we are here to answer the call. He is drawing you in to greater and deeper things. Get your life in order or somebody else will! We all have our problems but that is what Jesus died for!

We are called to go forth and make disciples. We can do this by making a friend and building a relationship with anyone around us.

Every story in the Bible is interwoven with God's. When Jesus enters your story, everything in your life changes. Our story is about Him, not us. Everything in our lives must begin and end with God.

God will not move if we do not move forward. God will move when we move by giving him our best, and spending time in consecration in prayer, fasting and reading of His Word. 

As we face an uncertain New Year, let's get our house in order by blocking out the bad, mending the broken and bolstering the weak. Let us get our hearts in order, pray until peace comes, and entrust our lives into the loving hands of the Keeper of our tomorrow.

Merry Christmas. Join us for a bit of Christmas cheer, worship and a powerful message from Pastor Chantry Dean.

It doesn't matter what everyone else has. It doesn’t matter what the world has to offer. All you need is the glory! Protect the glory. What we have here is special. No matter how hard it may get or what may get in the way, hold on to the glory. God is going to have the victory!

God is a great Giver. The fact that God became flesh, dwelt among us and gave everything for our salvation is hard to describe. Part of the gift is how far He came and how far He went. It's an indescribable gift.

We are called to be disciples who make disciples. We do this by finding a friend and building a relationship.

No matter our circumstances, we still have a reason to praise God in everything.

So many times throughout the Bible there were times where miracles, signs, and wonders were performed, but why wasn't there more? God came down in flesh and performed miracle after miracle after miracle, but when you read of these things, you may wonder, why wasn't there more? God is fully able and is wanting to perform what we desire, but if our response is nothing then we will receive nothing. B...

No matter your background, you can see and increase in the kingdom of God. We plant, we water and God gives the increase

The pulpit and the pew are partners. In order to be effective in the kingdom of God, we need to apply the Word of God into our hearts, so we may be able to preach the gospel into our homes, jobs, and communities.

God's word is necessary for each of us. He includes stories that provide us hope, that show us hope. We did not know her name, we knew not much of her, but we knew she had hope! We are saved by hope! We rejoice in hope. We abound in hope. He is the God of hope! We must act on hope!

What is holding you back from allowing a renewing and a recovering to flow over your life? Hurts? Hangups? Brokeness? God is calling all of us for a time to recover from all that is keeping us from receiving what God is wanting to do in us and through us. No matter what we have done or what we have been through, allow God to move over you, because it's time for you make up in your mind to get up a...

We continue to learn in the book of James. Many things are learned for us to apply to our lives and our walk. Do not be greedy of your riches. We cannot fatten our hearts by desiring the luxuries of this world. Be considerate of those who suffer and do not wish it upon them. Do not hold grudges. And much more!

We are called to be consecrated, not comfortable. We are to not sacrifice our consecration for anything of this world. We must give ourselves to fasting and prayer. You need to identify the things among you that can defile you and your home. Give yourself completely to consecration. Consecration cultivates anointing. Consecration and separation are always associated with deliverance and power.

This lesson continues our study in James and this chapter is very practical and immensely spiritual. There is a severe importance to bridling our tongues and can be a clear evidence of the spiritual maturity of an individual. James then moves to the aspect of true wisdom which comes from above. Worldly wisdom is earthly, unspiritual, and devilish. Heavenly wisdom is pure and has the welfare of oth...

A person will never know who they are until they surrender to God and say "here I am." There is power when letting go and allowing God to work in our lives to where we need to be.

We must push towards seeking a relationship with God to have a personal revival and to become disciples who make disciples, then we will see the revival happen in our community.

In the first chapter, James established the foundation of the entire letter: being a doer of the Word. In the second and subsequent chapters, James expounds on what that means practically. We learn in this lesson that there is no room for favoritism. When we discriminate against someone, we are making ourselves judges with evil thoughts. If we show favoritism, we sin and are convicted as lawbreake...
