Welcome
Welcome to the Calvary Chapel Web Site.
Our desire at Calvary Chapel is to help people attain a meaningful
relationship with God and with others in an environment of love,
acceptance and forgiveness-equipping them to then help others
in the same way. As a pastor I feel my responsibility is to teach,
to equip the saints to grow in their relationship with the Lord,
and this is done through a verse-by-verse study of God's Word.
Paul speaks of this in Ephesians chapter 4 when he says that
pastor/teachers are "for the equipping of the saints for
the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ,
till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge
of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature
of the fullness of Christ; that we should no longer be children,
tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine,
by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful
plotting, but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all
things into Him who is the head; Christ; from whom the whole
body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies,
according to the effective working by which every part does it
share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in
love."
Ephesians 4:12-16.
As the Word of God is taught, people
are equipped for service. They are moving toward holiness, in
that God is molding and shaping their lives to be like His. They
are not tossed by the winds of doctrine that come blowing through
the church, but have a faith that is grounded in God's truth,
His Word. And as they grow, God's agape love comes flowing through
their lives. It is a sacrificial love that is seen in the body
of Christ.
If we can assist you in your walk with
the Lord or if you want to know more of who Jesus is, please
E-mail us or write us that we can share with you the blessedness
of having a relationship with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
As Peter said "but grow in the
grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him
be the glory both now and
forever. Amen."
