Calvary Church Podcast

Jesus warned of those who say “Lord, Lord” but do not enter the kingdom of heaven. Understanding the difference between a real faith that changes and saves us and a counterfeit faith that does neither. Most Christian kids are abandoning their faith after leaving High School. Most people who reject don’t have the real things. They reject a false view of Christianity.  Can you really be a follower o...

What does is take to be a soul winner? Often times the Lord lays people in our lives that we have the opportunity to impact. Are we seizing the opportunities to advance His kingdom?  Support the show Find us at! Calvary.us <- Website 💻 Calvary.us <- Instagram 📱 CalvaryChurchCLW <- Youtube 📹

Over the last couple of weeks Calvary has been in a series on Restoration. This week, Pastor Willy discusses some extra things that he wasn't able to share in the message series.  **We apologize for some mic issues that we were having during the recording of this week's episode**  Support the show Find us at!

The power of breakthrough, suddenly what wasn’t unclear becomes clear, suddenly a problem is solved, a new discovery is made, a corner is turned. If the discovery is significant enough, a new chapter, even a new life can begin. What about spiritual breakthroughs? Nehemiah returned to Jerusalem to bring about change. He believed that if the walls could be rebuilt, the culture could be repaired and...

 The greater the vision, the greater the challenge. Nothing significant was ever undertaken or accomplished without facing real difficulty. Most opposition we face is emotional or spiritual, much more than physical. While some of us may face physical harm, most of the time our enemy works to discourage us, to convince us that certain things are true that aren’t true. Remember the devil is lair. It...

 January is the season of resolutions. We joke about resolutions, but I’m actually a fan, not of empty wishes but of serious decisions and new directions. We need new directions because we all need to grow and keep moving forward. If you’re breathing you haven’t arrived yet, you’re still on a journey and the way to make real progress is to make serious decisions that translate into real change.  I...

It's 2020, perhaps you've made a resolution for this year. How do we keep those resolutions going? More importantly, what is the key to consistently growing spiritually this year? Join Pastor Willy Rice as he discusses this, and much more. Support the show Find us at! Calvary.us <- Website 💻 Calvary.us <- Instagram 📱 CalvaryChurchCLW <- Youtube 📹

We all need a place and a time to start over. A new direction often begins with asking the right question. The book of Nehemiah begins with a question. It was a question that sent his life in a new direction. A new beginning often starts with the right question. What if your future were just one question away? What Nehemiah found out was a big problem. Don’t hide from the problems, face them. The...

Your beliefs have eternal consequences. Jesus came so that we may be saved from the negative eternal consequence, and find life with him. Have you ever truly made a step to accept that gift?

We’ve learned that Christmas is about the God who is, about the God who loves and about the God who gives. Now we come to consider the present itself. We look at the last part of our verse so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. We often use the words belief, or faith. Perhaps the best way to translate this is to use the word trust. I receive what God offers me...

Have you ever gotten a gift that you didn’t want or need? We all have. But God’s generosity is seen in that He gave what we needed the most, whether you understand and believe that or not. He gave His only begotten son.

Everyone longs for love, looks for love. Love is the most powerful force in the universe. There is no other force like love that can transform a cold, selfish heart. That can turn a strong warrior into a protective father or a self-absorbed ladder climber, into a mother who makes heroics sacrifices. Love calls us to sacrifice, to give, to serve, and sometimes even to die. We long for love. Where d...

Paul wrote in 2 Timothy 4:21, “ Make every effort to come before winter.”  Paul understood that his life would soon come to an end and a very important message needed to be heard before winter came. Life is short and opportunities are limited, we only get a short time to make an impact. What are you doing with your time before winter comes? Support the show Find us at!

We must seek the kingdom. It isn’t enough to know about it or even believe in it, we must actively seek it. This means to intently pursue it. It means we should desire to be part of God’s kingdom but it also means that we should work to advance God’s kingdom. Instead of living for money and what material things can bring, we should orient our lives and our focus to that which is spiritual and eter...

In this episode we discuss racism and the steps we can take individually, and as a community of believers, to further an atmosphere of reconciliation. Support the show Find us at! Calvary.us <- Website 💻 Calvary.us <- Instagram 📱 CalvaryChurchCLW <- Youtube 📹

What worries you? Worry doesn’t take the problems out of tomorrow it only takes the strength out of today. The only antidote to the bondage of living trapped in a materialistic blindness is to seek God’s kingdom first. What does that mean? It means to put God first. It means to live for His kingdom first. It means to prioritize the things that matter to God. In our x150 Advance initiative we have...

Most of us don’t get an obituary do-over, but we can think about the legacy of our life. By now it should be clear, God has a kingdom. It is advancing on the earth and it will one day culminate when the kingdom comes on earth as it is in heaven. For now we are to orient our lives to that kingdom which is truly real, truly eternal and we are to work for the advance of that kingdom.  What will you d...

What does it mean that we are to continually pray for the Kingdom to come on earth as it is in heaven? We’ve been learning about the realities of the kingdom of God over the last several weeks. We know that the kingdom of God is wherever the king reigns. You can’t necessarily see it, or touch it, or measure it, but it’s there. It’s where the King (Jesus) reigns in the hearts and minds of His follo...
