East Bay Calvary Church

We’ve been learning that God sees things differently than we do — and we tend to let too much get in the way of seeing things His way. This week, Pastor Brian talks about what can eclipse our faith in God.

Through David's story, we've been learning that God sees things differently than we do. How do we need to adjust the way we view the world in order to view it like Jesus does? Pastor Brian takes us to 1 Samuel 17 to talk about it.

"With God, waiting time is not wasted time." This week we take a look at 1 Samuel 16 to see how God used waiting in David's life — and how he wants to use your waiting as well.

This week, Pastor Brian begins a new series entitled "David: Up Close and Personal." He starts off with an overview of David's journey to become king of Israel, and we see that God sees things differently than we do.

Pastor Brian wraps up his Everyday Disciplemaking series with a look at some men in the Bible who were excellent at making excuses. We must ask: do our concerns in this world align with God's concerns?

Do you believe prayer is important? Would your prayer habits say the same thing? This week, Pastor Brian finishes up his three-message series "Everyday Disciplemaking" with a message he entitled "Prayer: Don't Leave Home Without It." He takes us to Colossians 4:2 to discuss how we pray and what we ought to pray for.

Elder David Kurtz speaks this week, with a message he entitled "Where Is Your Cross?"

Roby Isaac, president of Good News Media, Inc., joins us today as a guest speaker, sharing the incredible story of how God brought him to the United States and to Himself.

Pastor Brian continues his series "Everyday Disciplemaking" with a message on Ephesians 5:15-17. Subtitled "Making every step have purpose," he discusses how to make the most of our investments and our integrity for the kingdom mission.

This week, Pastor Brian begins a new short series called "Everyday Disciplemaking," and his message title nods to Pastor Jonathan Mast and his family's new home as they follow God's leading to West Virginia. In this message, subtitled "Natural Disciplemaking," Pastor Brian looks at the Great Commission as found in Matthew 28:16-20.

“I’m full of pain.” Because we live in a fallen world, that’s a phrase many can relate to. However, Romans 8 reminds us that there is purpose in our pain — which is the subject of guest speaker Ken Rudolph’s message this week.

"When you don't believe that you are lost you cannot be found." Pastor Jonathan Mast speaks on Matthew 9:9-17 this week, taking a look at Jesus not as a friend of the righteous and perfect but as a friend of sinners. How can we reach the lost like Jesus did? And have we humbled ourselves in recognition of our desperate need for Him?

Isn't it frustrating when your plans fail? The good news is that we serve a God whose Word and whose plans NEVER fail! Pastor Brian takes us to Isaiah 55:8-11 this week as we look at the infallibility of Scripture.

Pastor Brian starts a short series on Scripture this week, taking a look at Proverbs 29:18 as we discuss living out God's Word.

“What is my spiritual gift?” Pastor Brian approaches this question from a different angle as he reminds us that gifts are about their Giver’s kingdom purpose.

We take a look at the last two fruits of the Spirit, gentleness and self-control, as Pastor Brian continues our study on the Holy Spirit.

Is kindness more than being nice? What do goodness and faithfulness have to do with God’s kingdom? Pastor Brian looks at the next three fruits of the Spirit this week as we continue our study on the Holy Spirit.

In this message, Pastor Brian takes some time to talk about the fourth fruit of the Spirit: patience. It's one we all struggle with - so what does it look like in our lives and how do we develop it?

How is fruit different than works? Pastor Brian looks at the first three fruits of the Spirit this week, with some helpful application points to guide us in whether we need to more closely examine the fruit in our lives.

We are always filled with something. And as fallen creatures, we have a natural inclination towards being filled with desires that aren’t pleasing to God. In this sermon on Galatians 5:16-25, Pastor Brian talks about the emptying of ourselves we must practice before we can be filled with the good things of the Spirit.

How does the Spirit change me? What does it mean to "be filled with the Spirit," as Ephesians 5:18 tells us? Pastor Brian gives us some answers from God's Word as we continue our sermon series "Empowered."

This week, Pastor Brian reviews what we've talked about so far in this series and implores us to do a "heart checkup" - are we applying what we say we know about the Holy Spirit? What life change do we see?

In this message we turn to Acts 1 as Pastor Brian discusses what he calls the "ultimate power move" - why God sent His Spirit to believers.

"Knowing who we are, God gave us all He is!" In this message, entitled "All of Him through All of Me," Pastor Brian takes a closer look at Who exactly the Holy Spirit is and why it's so incredible that He was given to us.

This week, Pastor Brian takes a detour from his series on the Holy Spirit to discuss something God has been teaching him - and may be teaching you, too! Pastor Brian takes a look at James 1:1-4 in this message he entitled "How Has Your Day Been?"
