Calvary Church | Sunday Message

Speaker: Tom Norton - Tom Norton walks us through what it looks like to surrender what we have to God. What are you holding onto today?

Speaker: Bruce + Panel - Everything we have... our abilities, opportunities, resources, and experiences, has been entrusted to us by God. The question is not how much we’ve been given, but what we’re doing with what’s in our hands. Jesus isn’t looking for perfection. He’s looking for faithfulness. Are you burying, developing, or investing what God has entrusted to you?

Speaker: Josue Villatoro - Every day, God entrusts us with a gift we can never get back: time. We don’t own it, we steward it. The question is not how much time we have, but how we are using the time we've been given. What if the greatest measure of a life isn’t productivity, but faithfulness to the purposes God has placed before us? How are you spending the time God has entrusted to you?

Join in our annual celebration of what God is doing in our church. Our three congregations (African, Hispanic, English) came together and were reminded of God's faithful love and beautiful design.

Speaker: Jon Nelson- Genesis 1–11 reveals our purpose, our problem, and our need for redemption. Even as humanity rebels, God’s grace continues to pursue and restore. The story begins with creation, but it points us to Jesus, the One who made a way back to God. Where are you looking for purpose and hope today?

Speaker: Dan Schoepf- Genesis 11 reminds us that God’s story keeps moving forward even through broken families, long seasons, detours, waiting, and generations that seem forgotten. No moment is wasted, no person is insignificant, and no silence means God has stopped working. Your life is part of a much bigger story of grace. The question is not whether God is working, but how He wants to work thro...

Speaker: Josue Villatoro- What we try to build for ourselves rarely holds the weight we put on it. Genesis 11 shows how quickly human effort can turn into confusion when it’s disconnected from God’s purpose, but it also points us to a better way. God is not against your life being built. He’s inviting you into His way of building: one that brings clarity, unity, and lasting purpose in Christ. Wher...

Speaker: Jon Nelson- Genesis 10 may look like a list of names, but it reveals a powerful truth: God is faithful through every generation and sovereign over every story. Even as nations spread and humanity grows, our deepest need remains the same, redemption through Jesus Christ. No family story, legacy, or generation is beyond God’s grace.

Speaker: Caleb Mann - Genesis 9 shows us that even after the flood, sin was still present. Noah, the man who walked faithfully with God, still stumbled and so do we. This passage reminds us that sin affects more than just ourselves, but it also points us to the daily grace God offers through Jesus. We are all faced with the choice to follow God or follow our flesh, but the hope of the gospel is th...

Our hope is that this conversation strengthens your faith and encourages you to keep seeking truth in Scriptur...

Speaker: Josue Villatoro- Creation was good… then it broke. But God didn’t walk away, He brought rescue, renewal, and a promise. In Genesis 9, we see His grace in the covenant, His justice in how He values life, and His mercy in the sign of the rainbow. And ultimately, that promise points forward to Jesus, the One who brings true restoration. What would it look like to live knowing God as the Crea...

Speaker: Bruce Martin- The flood is more than a story of destruction, it’s a powerful picture of both God’s justice and His grace. Genesis 8 reminds us: “But God remembered Noah…” Just as the ark carried Noah through the storm, Jesus is our refuge today, the only place of safety when life feels overwhelming and when judgment comes. Run to the Ark. Run to Christ. What are you trusting to carry you...

We dive into some of the difficult questions found in Genesis chapters 1–6, exploring God’s Word with honesty, clarity, and a heart for spiritual growth. Our hope is that this conversation strengthens your faith and encourages you to keep seeking truth in Scripture. We would love to hear from you—send us your questions to info@calvaryonline.org

Speaker: Caleb Mann - Noah’s ark is more than a children’s story. Genesis 6 reveals the seriousness of sin, the reality of God’s judgment, and the beauty of His grace. The same grace that saved Noah is the grace offered to us today through faith. What are you trusting to carry you safely through the storm?

Speaker: Josue Villatoro- The cross was once a symbol of execution. It was a place of shame, suffering, and finality. But Jesus turned it into the place where chains break, guilt is removed, and healing begins. And because the tomb is empty, none of it is just symbolism.

Speaker: Jon Nelson- The city was stirred. The crowd was loud. Everyone thought they understood what was happening. But Jesus wasn’t entering Jerusalem to meet their expectations. He was moving with purpose toward something far greater. What if the King you need isn’t the one you expected?

Speaker: Dan Schoepf- On the surface, everything looked like success. Cities were rising, families were multiplying, and culture was expanding. But underneath it all, sin was spreading just as quickly. What looked like progress to humanity looked very different to God. Are we moving forward… or just drifting further away?

Speaker: Josue Villatoro- At first glance, it’s just a list of names... generation after generation. Life. Legacy. Death. Over and over again. But buried in the pattern, something begins to break through. A hint that this story isn’t as final as it seems. What kind of story is your life really telling?

Speaker: Caleb Mann -You can spend your whole life climbing, working, building, achieving and still end up in the wrong place. Genesis 4 shows a world advancing, growing, and moving forward, but something underneath isn’t right. Where is your life actually leading you?

Speaker: Josue Villatoro- Sin doesn’t explode overnight, it crouches, whispers, and waits. What begins as wounded pride can grow into jealousy, division, and destruction. Cain had a choice to either trust God’s design or let sin rule his heart. Discover how God cautions us, confronts us, and ultimately extends His great mercy toward us.

Speaker: Jacob Reinhardt- Sin doesn’t stay private, it echoes. Shame leads to hiding. Fear replaces intimacy. Blame replaces unity. The God who was once walked toward in joy is now avoided in guilt. And yet… even in judgment, mercy speaks. What does a holy God do when His design is rejected? And what does exile reveal about His heart?

Speaker: Jon Nelson- The fall didn’t start with chaos, it started with a question. A subtle distortion. A believable lie. How does something so small unravel everything God called good? And where does hope begin when everything is fractured?

Speaker: Josue Villatoro- Are you living in the relationships God designed you for or trying to do life alone? We weren’t made to be alone. God designed us for relationship. One that is equal in worth, different by design, united in love. His design isn’t restriction it’s a gift that helps us flourish.

Speaker: Caleb Mann -In Eden, God gives humanity abundance, purpose, and freedom, with one choice: trust Him or define life on our own. It’s the same decision we face every day. His commands aren’t restrictions, they’re protection that lead to life. Where are you choosing your way instead of trusting His?

Speaker: Bruce Martin - God didn’t rest because He was tired, He rested because His work was finished. And He invites us into that same rest. In a nonstop, hurried world, true rest isn’t escape or comfort, it’s the presence of God. Through Jesus, we can stop striving and finally breathe. Are you slowing down enough to actually rest in Him?
