When the world seems to be spinning out of control, it’s important to hold onto what matters. And when we hold on Jesus, we can be grounded when our lives are shaken, persevere in our calling, and have hope for tomorrow. On Sunday, April 26, 2020, Pastor Chad Gilligan gives us Three Things We Have to Hold on To.

Pastor Chad is joined by his good friend, a Pastor of One Church, Greg Ford. Pastor Greg served as Calvary's Youth Pastor for several years before leaving to plant a church in Columbus.   Join us for this encouraging and insightful conversation.

He was devout, loyal, and brave. One of the chosen few. One of the twelve. But one moment of doubt changed the narrative. One moment of doubt changed his name forever. When circumstances are dire, we must remember to hold on to truth, hold onto hope, and hold on to the One who transcends above it all. On Easter Sunday, April 12, 2020, Pastor Chad Gilligan gives Three Ways We Doubt from the story o...

During a crisis, it can be hard to see the purpose or reason why it’s happening. It can be even harder to remember that every moment is in God’s hands. Like traveling through a dark tunnel, the wait feels interminable and the end never coming. Some things in life only make sense only after it has passed. On Sunday, April 5, 2020, Pastor Chad Gilligan continues his sermon series, Seven Letters, and...

Nobody wanted the COVID-19 outbreak. No one wanted this lingering isolation in quarantine, but if this is to be our new normal, let’s not let this opportunity pass us by. Instead of focusing on what we cannot control, let’s look at our priorities and see how we can make the most of it. On Sunday, March 29, 2020, Pastor Chad Gilligan gives us three steps for keeping first things first.

Plans were broken, dreams disillusioned, and now you are feeling the strain of isolation. While the world seems at the end with this massive world-wide pandemic, you are locked down, stuck inside your house. Long before COVID-19, the apostle John was forced into exile on the island of Patmos. Knowing the strain of isolation and missing loved ones, he wrote seven letters to churches of that time. O...

The Corona Virus, also known as COVID-19, has swept through the world, terrorizing people of every nationality. People are panicking, hospitals overwhelmed, and stores emptied. But the Creator of all things is still on the throne. The God, who has knitted us together in our mothers’ womb, knows every fear and weakness, loves each one of us, and has a plan for our future. On Sunday, March 15, 2020,...

As Christian parents, our role is to gradually transfer a child’s dependence away from us until their dependence rests solely on God. But with the world and human nature fighting against us, it can be hard to know where to start. On Sunday March 8, 2020, Pastor Lindsay Jordan, Calvary’s Children’s Pastor, showed us that being parents is more than an existence, it’s a calling from God.

Parenting is never easy. Even King David, a man after God’s own heart, failed at parenting three of his sons. Only by relying on God and turning to Him for guidance can we hope to succeed. On Sunday, March 1, 2020, Pastor Chad Gilligan looks at the life of David, showing how your relationship with God today will impact your children tomorrow and generations to come.

Healthy Things Grow (2/2/20) by Calvary Church

Christmas Lights (12/22/19) by Calvary Church

On Sunday, December 15, 2019, Pastor Chad Gilligan reminds us to go beyond the nativity story and make Jesus big this...
