Ryan and Annabel Koher, our missionaries to Mozambique shares about his experience in prison and more. His message is followed by a time of question and answers.

In Jesus' conclusion to the Sermon on the Mount, He urges the importance of doing what He commands. This sermon explores the challenge of works and salvation by showing that Jesus calls us to obedience—something entirely different than works.

The Golden Rule might be the most famous command in the whole Bible. But what Jesus presents is truly more vision than it is rule. Plus, when we should and shouldn't judge others based upon God's generosity toward us.

We generally acknowledge forgiveness is a gift—until we are requited to give it. Why is Jesus so adamant that we forgive? Why does He condition our forgiveness from God upon how we forgive others? And how do we learn to forgive those who injure us?

Worry is the fruit of a life with disordered priorities. We find peace by trusting Christ in all things.

Weekly sermons and reflections from Calvary Chapel Twin Peaks.

How fasting affects the body, soul, and spirit.

By putting His prayer at the center of the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus teaches that prayer is the single most important Christian activity. But how should we pray? Does Jesus intend us to pray His exact prayer? What does this prayer mean and how can we use it well?

Guest speaker Dane Under addresses how can the Christian engage in secular arts. Can they teach us anything about God? How can we partake in their entertainment without being led astray?

Jesus gives us His Prayer 101 course. The foundation of prayer is "Father." If we start here, prayer will no longer feel tedious, one-sided, or discouraging.

We enter the first of Jesus' three spiritual disciplines: giving.

When Jesus calls us to be perfect, what does He mean? Is it possible? And why should I care?

An at-home edition of our Sunday worship gathering during Hurricane Hilary. We pray through our liturgy and look at the Scriptures used by the ancient church for this Sunday.

What is the difference between a church that flourishes with the power of God and a church that seems to lack it? The answer may lie in how the earliest church writings interpreted Matthew 5:23-24. This has important consequences for us right now!

Following our message on Matthew 5:17-48, we look at a brief overview of the law from Eden to Christ, examples of how the law of Christ fulfills and exceeds Judaism, an alternative interpretation on turning the other cheek, and Jesus' "Law of Prayer" as practiced by some of the earliest church writings we have outside the New Testament.

What is our relationship to the Law? And does Jesus actually mean our righteousness must exceed the scribes and Pharisees?

Some resources and additional thoughts on persecution.

How does persecution belong to the good, flourishing life? How do the Beatitudes save the world?

Purity of heart is necessary if we want to see God.

More looks at the way mercy is actually used in the Bible and in ancient prayers of the church.

Mercy is the most beautiful word in Christianity. But it it calls to mind images of judges giving you a lighter sentence than you deserve, then you really need to hear how the Bible defines mercy.
