Calvary Palos Verdes Teachings

Pastor: David Guzik

The Holy Spirit speaks to us through the word of God, and he tells us to hear the voice of Jesus today. If we want to hear God's voice, then we must not harden our hearts by the deceitfulness of sin and unbelief. The Israelites in the wilderness are an example of what hardened unbelief does. Pastor: Daniel Hendrickson

Pastor: Rob Orr

As holy brothers and sisters in Christ, who share in a heavenly calling, we must consider Jesus, the Apostle and High Priest of our confession. When we consider Jesus it is clear that he is better than all else. For the Hebrews it was important for them to see that Jesus is better than Moses. Pastor: Daniel Hendrickson

Pastor: Daniel Hendrickson

God has an amazing plan to save man and bring glory to his son Jesus at the same time. This great salvation is not just for the future, but makes Jesus a present help for all our needs now. Pastor: Bendukai Bouey

King David wrote this beautiful psalm that expresses how the Lord is our shepherd. The relationship between a shepherd and his sheep is very telling of our relationship with Jesus. Pastor: Daniel Hendrickson

We receive the first warning in Hebrews: we must pay much closer attention to what we have heard, lest we drift away from it. There is the danger of drifting away from the message of Jesus, and neglecting the salvation that he offers. How shall we escape if we neglect so great a salvation? Pastor: Daniel Hendrickson

God added humanity to his deity in the person of Jesus Christ. The writer of Hebrews proves that Jesus, the Son of God, is much more superior to angels by quoting seven Old Testament scriptures. Jesus is not an angel, he is God. Pastor: Daniel Hendrickson

The book of Hebrews begins unlike most New Testament letters. Instead of stating the author and the recipient of the letter, it gets right into its main subject - Jesus. The introduction to Hebrews gives seven attributes of Jesus, the Son of God.   Pastor: Daniel Hendrickson

Paul ends the letter to the Philippians by exhorting them to pray, think, and live in such a way that they will have the peace of God. The peace of God surpasses human understanding, and it can be experienced by those who have a relationship with God, through Jesus Christ.  Pastor: Daniel Hendrickson

When we have a healthy relationship with God and healthy relationships with other believers we will have joy in our lives. Pastor: Daniel Hendrickson

This passage in Philippians explores joy - where is it found, how do we find it, and what can rob us of it. Pastor: Rob Orr

As beloved children of God, we are called to obey God. Obeying God does not save us, but once we are saved we will obey God. God sovereignly works his salvation into us, and then we have a responsibility to work out our own salvation. Paul holds up Timothy and Epaphroditus as examples of people of obedient faith. Pastor: Daniel Hendrickson

Philippians 2 will encourage us to be unified as a body, by walking in humility, to the glory of the Father. Pastor: Bendukai Bouey

While Paul was in prison he wanted to glorify Jesus. He was torn between whether living or dying would be better. Paul knew that to die and be with Jesus was better, because when a Christian dies we go to be at home with Jesus in heaven. Regardless, Paul would live each day for Jesus and so should we. Pastor: Daniel Hendrickson

Paul was filled with joy as he remembered the start of the church in Philippi. He was also thankful for his relationship with the saints and he always prayed for them. As our church begins Home Groups, this is a joyful start of many new relationships in the church. Pastor: Daniel Hendrickson

Baptism Message Pastor: Daniel Hendrickson

1 Timothy 1:10 - Death Defeated Pastor: Daniel Hendrickson

James 5:13-20 - Prayer for Healing, Prayer for Forgiveness, and Prayer for the Wandering. Pastors: Rob Orr, Bendukai Bouey, and Daniel Hendrickson

Brothers and sisters, be patient until the coming of the Lord. Jesus is coming again! That reality brings hope and purification to the family of God. Pastor: Daniel Hendrickson

With more humbling truth James asks us to come and reason with him. God is God and we are not. When we judge others, plan our futures apart from God, and trust in our own riches, are we not acting like we are God? What is your life? James says man's life is like a mist. Let God be the judge, seek God's will, and trust in God alone. Pastor: Daniel Hendrickson

Pastor: Rob Orr

There is a war of sinful desire within every person, and the world, the flesh, and the devil are always at odds with the child of God. But God gives more grace. Sinners who humble themselves will receive God's grace. Pastor: Daniel Hendrickson

Everyone wants to say that they have wisdom. Yet, those who have true wisdom will be able to prove it by their good conduct. James shows what false wisdom looks like and what true wisdom looks like. True wisdom looks like Jesus. Pastor: Daniel Hendrickson
